What A Christmas!

There's a war going on, and Clementine Rose Miles has her eyes open. She's just ten, but nobody can size up the situation better than this future investigative reporter with her knack for vocabulary and fondness for coffee. Is the new hired hand a Nazi spy? Can the shootout with her twin cousins ground them for life? How long does the smell of strawberry Jell-O last on a wool skirt? Do mailboxes really talk? Will Christmas still come to the Miles family when there's a tragedy? Can anything else possibly go wrong? You bet! Whether it's helping Grandma churn butter, understanding her teenimpaired sister, approaching the unapproachable Mrs. McPugh, or praying for her uncle's unredeemed soul, Clementine stays on the case until it's solved. She tells a very grownup story with a child's humor and candor. In spite of one disaster after another befalling the Miles family, tears, love and laughter anchor them to their faith. And when everything comes to a crashing climax at the Christmas pageant, the whole town is saying, "What a Christmas!"
