Review
A gentle Christmas story, too merry to be sentimental but touched with sentiment. . . . The family scenes are natural and lively, the story giving a particularly pleasant picture of a rural community’s close-knit relationships.
(Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)The rural regional quality of the story is strong, the details of church pageant and party are relayed with humor, and the conversations abound in briskness and poignancy.
(Horn Book)This understated story with its excellent characterizations has year-round as well as holiday appeal.
