Perfect for gift-giving, the collection elicits from a master American storyteller a magical remembrance of Christmas past.","brand":"B\u0026R Samizdat Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47144169177328,"sku":"2940000768266","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940000768266_p0.jpg?v=1763545694","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940000768266","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
