If you want to find a short coming-of-age book with a holiday theme, then this book is for you! It's more than a Christmas read a lovely gentle story.
It is a gentle story about a twelve-year-old girl's reaction to the ups and downs of an unwelcome situation and her growing self-awareness and sensitivity towards other people.
The story, which is suitable for children and adults, has a Christian slant in that it features carol singing and a scene in church on Christmas morning.
