Product Description
It’s Christmastime in Skary, Indiana, but the holiday season has been hijacked by maverick director Lois Stepaphanopolis as she attempts to bring her horror-ific vision of A Christmas Carol to life. But the holly-decked path from page to stage is a thorny one, as Lois attempts to rally her skeptical cast, including new father Wolfe Boone, and then she learns that her reluctant marketing director, Alfred Tennison, is truly a Christmas Scrooge.
Alfred’s grassroots marketing plan proves more than successful as the buzz builds that Skary should anticipate an overflowing audience for their opening night– but a crucial miscommunication leaves the visiting theatergoers expecting of a very different Christmas production. As chaos ensues, can the actors pull off an improv miracle — and can the Skary community convince their own Scrooge to embrace the true meaning of Christmas?

Too Late to Review? January 30, 2008

Here it is almost February, I finally got a chance to sit down and read this book that I've been itching to dig into. I'm glad I didn't wait until next year's Christmas season. Wolf and his wife have too much lure for me. I've read every book in the series. Although it's after the season, I still enjoyed the Christmas tale. Boo is still may favorite of the series, but I will encourage my reading buddies to read this right after Thanksgiving next year.

Wolfe and Oliver are in the throws of fatherhood as Christmas approaches. Ainsley and Melb's their wives are doing the best they can to create a loving atmosphere in their homes and celebrate Christmas on very little sleep. The holidays can be so stressful and full of misunderstandings. This story looks at family life during the holidays and how those families interact in their community.
The story is fun, and filled with the drama that happens off the stage as the actors try to catch the crazy vision that Lois (their director) has for this traditional play. No matter how hard they try to practice and think the cast has the play down pat God steps in and has His way with the show. I was surprised at Lois and what she allows God to do in her life and the lives of those around her. This story shows that God uses the SIMPLE things of life to touch people's hearts and change lives. This story really touches on the real meaning of Christmas. I really liked this story and the loveable characters. This is the first Boo book that I have read. It's made me want to read the others.

I absolutely love the Boo Series. This one was a little different than the first three. I thought it ended kind of wierd, but it was definately worth the reading.
Love the series January 2, 2008

I really liked this book, its not as long as the others, but the story is a good continuation of the series and its characters. I love the Boo series! Maybe she will write more!
 Funny! December 22, 2007

I've read the entire Boo Series so I know the characters well. It is a short book, perfect to curl up on the couch with the tree lights, chocolate, cookies and indulge. I laughed so hard I cried and then some of those tears became from being touched by the message Gutteridge put into the book. I was laughing so hard at the end my husband came out and I read out loud the last 20 pages or so, he was laughing so hard he was crying too. Great book, great message.
