Excerpt

‘Jo was the first to wake in the gray dawn of Christmas morning. No stockings hung at the fireplace, and for a moment she felt as much disappointed as she did long ago, when her little sock fell down because it was crammed so full of goodies. Then she remembered her mother’s promise and, slipping her hand under her pillow, drew out a little crimson-covered book.’

Synopsis

This delightful new compilation of festive stories includes ‘Kate’s Choice’, the story of a young English girl who inherits a windfall; ‘The Quiet Little Woman’, in which a poor girl named Tilly finds an injured bird and takes it home to care for; ‘The Abbot’s Ghost’, about a group of family and friends attending a house-party at a grand old English estate; as well as an excerpt from Alcott’s famous novel Little Women.
