I finished this book in December, but am just getting around to a review. While picking up a reserve at the Library, I noticed this small book in a display of Christmas books. It was too appealing not to take home with me. Louisa May Alcott wrote the three short stories as a contribution to a literary publication created by five of her fans, the Luken girls. Heartwarming, sentimental, gentle, uplifting. Just what I wanted for the Holidays.
