"Christmas from Heaven: The True Story of the Berlin Candy Bomber" by Robert T. Barrett tells the heartwarming tale of Gail Halvorsen, a World War II pilot who brought joy to the children of post-war Berlin through his inventive candy drops. During the Berlin Airlift, Halvorsen started a tradition of dropping sweets attached to handkerchief parachutes as a gesture of goodwill and hope.
