The Christmas Pony.. a book review

Do you like Christmas Stories?

I love this time of the year when you find tons of books with a 

Christmas theme.

Melody Carlson has a new novel out called

The Christmas Pony

About

With Christmas around the corner, the Turnbull family is in need of a few small miracles.

It is 1937, and Lucy Turnbull knows better than to wish for a pony this Christmas. Her mother has assured her in no uncertain terms that asking for a pony is the same as asking for the moon. Besides, the only extra mouths they need at their boarding house are the paying kind. Then an interesting pair of strangers comes to town, and Lucy's world changes forever.

This was a fun story to read.  Lucy's character reminded me of a

child with a one tracked mind.. and she knows 

beyond anything else, she is going to get a pony for

Christmas!  

This is one story you will want to read this holiday season...
