My Favorite Christmas, A Heartwarming Holiday Story by Tom Monson
Welcome! If you’re here, you’re probably looking for a story that captures the magic of the holiday season. My Favorite Christmas is a book that’s deeply personal to me, inspired by my own experiences and the incredible stories I’ve heard along the way.
The Story Behind My Favorite Christmas
This book was born during a time when I was finding my way in life. In 2014, I moved back to Los Angeles with a lot of uncertainty ahead and a need to support my family. To make ends meet, I started driving for Uber and Lyft. It was Christmastime, and while the city twinkled with lights and holiday spirit, I felt like I was standing still in a whirlwind of change.
To keep my mind busy during those long drives, I began asking my passengers one simple question: “What’s your favorite Christmas story?”The answers were remarkable. Some were funny, others deeply emotional. One story, in particular, stayed with me—a story about a family who had very little but found a way to make their Christmas unforgettable. That story, along with my own memories of struggling to provide for my family during the holidays, became the foundation for My Favorite Christmas.

A Personal Note from Tom Monson
The holidays have always been a mix of magic and hardship for me. I’ve experienced Christmases where money was tight, and I wasn’t sure how I’d pull everything together for my family. But those moments taught me something beautiful—that the best gifts aren’t wrapped in shiny paper. They’re found in the love we show, the forgiveness we offer, and the memories we make together.
My Favorite Christmas is my way of sharing that message with the world. I hope it brings you as much joy and comfort as it brought me while writing it.
