Product Description
Not everyone is lucky at Christmas. Some people would call 16-year-old Liz Kitchell and her family truly fortunate, but it doens't feel that way to her. It seems that only a miracle can give 8-year-old Katie her holiday wish. She wants a family, something she does not have as a foster child. As for 17-year-old Matt, he too is in a foster home and is finally letting himself feel a snese of belonging. When he allows himself to do a good deed for Katie, he doesn't realize what would happen. is the spirit of Christmas stong enough to grant the impossible?

This little book tugged at my heartstrings from the get-go. I'm going to keep it around for when my girls get a bit older and need some reading to do. I think everyone should read this book... it's a definite must-read. I can't get any plainer than that. :)

This book was incredibly sad, but very good. I liked how the narration changed rom character to character. The best part: This book totally made me think it was really Christmas. The details are fantastic!!!!

This is a great book for Christmas time. It really gets you thinking about your life, and what a family means. I like how it didn't really have chapters. Each "segment" was introduced by a line in a Christmas carol and really pertained to the action of the story. I loved the ending too- I would have never guessed people could come together like that. This was my favorite Christmas book 4 years ago, and it's still my favorite today.

This is an amazing book; with a great lesson to it. I love to read this book at Christmas time to my younger sisters. It has such a powerful message. You should buy several to pass out this year at Christmas. Believe me you won't regret it.
