{"product_id":"9781530804863","title":"The Romance of a Christmas Card (1916), by Kate Douglas Wiggin","description":"Christmas is the most famous holiday of the year, and the word itself evokes images of Santa Claus, reindeer, snow, Christmas trees, egg nog and more. At the same time, it represents Christianity's most important event, the birth of the baby Jesus. Instantly, well known Christmas carols ring in your ears, pictures of the Nativity Scene become ubiquitous, or maybe you even picture nutcrackers or Scrooge and Tiny Tim.\u003cbr\u003eRegardless, Christmas is always the perfect time for holiday cheer, and reading classic Christmas stories. This version of Kate Douglas Wiggin's The Romance of a Christmas Card includes a table of contents and several Christmas related pictures.\u003cbr\u003e\"My door is on the latch tonight,\u003cbr\u003eThe hearth fire is aglow.\u003cbr\u003eI seem to hear swift passing feet --\u003cbr\u003eThe Christ Child in the snow.\"\u003cbr\u003eReba, the minister's new wife, was spirited, vigorous, courageous, and clever. She was also invincibly, incurably happy -- so that the minister seemed to grow younger every year. Reba doubled his joys and halved his burdens, tossing them from one of her fine shoulders to the other like feathers. She swept into the quiet village life of Beulah like a salt sea breeze.\u003cp\u003eNow she has a plan -- one involving a few small verses she has penned. For there are rebellious youths and some contention in the church that threatens to split it . . .\u003cbr\u003eKate Douglas Wiggin (1856-1923) was author of such popular works as \"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm\" and \"Penelope's English Experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052968263920,"sku":"9781530804863","price":6.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781530804863_p0.jpg?v=1763739211","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781530804863","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
