I've loved this book for a long time, and it still warms my heart every Christmas time. A relaxing read to pick up on an evening during the holiday season.

[Cathleen · Rating 3 out of 5]

As with any collection, there are stories that soar and those that sink. Holiday collections especially run the risk of being too schmaltzy for my current taste, but this book includes certain reflections that that are genuinely uplifting, cozy, and inspiring. My favorite by far is "If You're Missing Baby Jesus, Call 7162" by Jean Gietzen. On the face of it, the contrivance should annoy me, but each time I read it (to others or for myself) it genuinely warms my heart. I also treasure Robert Louis Stevenson's "A Christmas Prayer".
