๐๐ฌ๐๐ค Local Surgeon-Turned-Author Wins National Recognition for Inspiring Holiday Childrenโs Book๐๐ฌ๐๐ค
BLAIRSVILLE, GA โ Just in time for the holiday season, local plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Win Pound, is being recognized on the national stage for his debut childrenโs book, The Christmas Boy, which recently received the Momโs Choice Award, a distinction honoring excellence in family-friendly media, products and services.
Known for his compassionate care and volunteer surgical work with Healing the Children, Dr. Pound has helped provide life-changing reconstructive surgeries to children in need around the world. His humanitarian experiences inspired the heartwarming message behind The Christmas Boy โ that the true spirit of Christmas lies in kindness, hope, and giving.
โWorking with Healing the Children showed me the incredible power of generosity and love,โ said Dr. Pound. โI wanted to create a story that helps children see that the greatest gifts are those we give from the heart.โ
The Christmas Boy follows four children who are unaware of the many advantages they have in life. Only by the arrival of a young child from an impoverished country do they gain a new perspective and truly come to appreciate all that they have. With this new knowledge, they come to discover that Christmas magic isnโt found in presents, but in compassion and selflessness. Beautifully illustrated and filled with warmth, the story resonates with readers of all ages, reminding families of what the season is truly about.
Dr. Pound will be at Book Bound Books, on the Blairsville square, for a book reading and signing on Saturday, November 1st, 2025 at 11:00AM and at the Christmas in the Mountains event in Blairsville on Saturday, November 22nd.
Available now in paperback, coloring book, and eBook on Amazon,
The Christmas Boy books can also be purchased locally at Book Bound Books, located at 32 Town Sq C in Blairsville, GA.
