The story and the play are similar but yet different. The story and the play are similar in the fact that they both have the same theme that " It is better to give than recieve". Della had cut and sold her hair, so she could buy Jim a gold chain; likewise Jim had sold his gold watch, so he could get her the hair combs. Della cryed, because she was poor and couldn't find a way to get money for a gift for Jim. At the end of the story and the play Jim and Della were very happy that they got each other a gift for Christmas.
Altough the story has many similarities there are some differnces. In the story Della gets $200 for her hair; in the same way in the play she only gets $20 for her hair.
