A gift sure to bring joy… By PETER BOSCH Hi, everyone, this is just an idea if you’d like to do a very special treat that is well appreciated for this gift-giving season. It’s something I like to do each year, and that is to give brand-new comic books, digests, and coloring books with crayons to a children’s hospital. I can’t think of anything sadder for a child than having to be in a hospital on Christmas (or Hanukkah) but seeing the gift of a lot of comic books and the like is one that makes them happy. It’s easy to do, too. Gather up a bag of them and take them to the reception desk at your local kids’ hospital, tell them it’s a gift for the holiday, and they will be glad to receive them. The only thing is the items need to be brand new and unread (for health reasons) and I highly recommend they be very light-hearted, and not with a continuing storyline into some other issue they may not have. (The Archie digests, for example, fit perfectly in this category.) Again, this is just a suggestion that will brighten up their holiday immensely and will make you feel good, too. Have a Merry Christmas, everyone. — MORE — HO! HO! HO! Dig This Double Dose of Christmas ARCHIE. Click here. — SNEAK PEEK: New ARCHIE Digest Boasts 192 Pages of Classic CHRISTMAS Stories.
