Summary
"This inspirational and heartwarming short-story collection features a cast of characters struggling to deal with their dread of the Christmas season. Each story ends on a note of hope after they encounter family, close friends or sometimes total strangers who help them identify the barrier that prevents them from enjoying the holiday season. Along the way, spiritual faith is discovered or restored, friendships strengthened, and the importance of family and community reaffirmed."--Page [4] of cover.
