    About this ebook

    Five stories of Christmas redemption and relevation--families, strangers, coworkers, and even the dear departed.

    * Queenie's Christmas - A doll helps a girl and her mom find the spirit
    * Cocoa and the Cat - It's dangerous to bring in a stray
    * The Brick - Christmas is about surprises, right?
    * Moon Dance - The magic comes just when a person needs it
    * In the Still Midwinter - When the lights go out, will it be the worst party ever?

    Being vulnerable helps people find the true spirit of the season despite the hype and expectations. Settle in with a cup of cocoa and enjoy.

    Upstate South Carolina is a great place to live with the fae among the ferns and sassafras in the red clay, and Charlotte Babb listens as they spin their yarns in her ears and her hair. It's only the mundane who can't see the castles in the air, but think of them only as dust bunnies and cobwebs.  Visit her at http://charlottehenleybabb.com
