A story about a young women who while she sees her children as a blessing is struggling with her 5 children and being a mother who doesn’t want to accept help. Things end up in a downward spiral and she doesn’t know what to do. When an elderly man and lady end up helping her with advice, routine and help with the children as well. A heart warming story about family and coming together to support one another.

A Christmas Miracle is a very heartwarming story written by Beth Wiseman. This is the 4th novella in her new book Amish Celebrations. The storyline is absolutely remarkable and I enjoyed the way the story played out. The conclusion actuLly brought tears to my eyes.
The characters are very likeable and realistic and they all fit together perfectly in this story. I have to admit my favorite character was little Rachel Marie. This little five year old was wise beyond her years. She even stands in line to speak to Santa knowing the Amish don't believe in Santa. This is where the story really starts to develope and all kind of miracles happen.
I was not given a complimentary copy of this book to read and review. I was not approached by anyone to post a favorable review. All opinions are strictly my own based on this fantastic story. I highly recommend this book to all those who enjoy the Amish genre. I have rated this book with five stars because it has meant my expectations of a wonderful story.
Congratulations to Beth Wiseman on releasing another fantastic story for her readers to enjoy. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
