    • Synopsis
    • It’s Christmas break time at the McDonald house, but silent nights—and days—are
      nowhere to be found. With the children’s constant bickering, pretty packages and a
      sweet-smelling tree don’t come close to filling the McDonald home with the true spirit of
      the first Christmas. Then Mom remembers an old tradition of building a soft bed for Baby
      Jesus one straw at a time. Each time someone secretly does something nice for another
      family member, he or she gets to add a single straw to the manger. Soon the children’s
      quarreling and negative feelings subside and the homemade crib is overflowing. But for
      one family member, a required act of kindness becomes more than he can take. Inspired
      by a true story and filled with both heart and humor, The Last Straw may forever change
      the way your family celebrates Christmas.
