The Christmas season is a time of wonder, joy, and the belief in something magical. It is a time when children's hearts are filled with anticipation and dreams of what Santa might bring. But what happens when that magic fades? What happens when children begin to doubt the spirit of giving and the joy of sharing? This story is a journey into the heart of Christmas, where we follow Lily, a little girl who rediscovers the true meaning of the season. She embarks on an unforgettable adventure to the North Pole, where she meets talking polar bears, clumsy elves, and a scroll filled with forgotten Christmas wishes. Through her journey, Lily learns that the magic of Christmas is not just about presents or snow, but about the power of belief, the joy of giving, and the importance of cherishing the people we love. This story is for every child who has ever wondered about the magic of Christmas, and for those who have lost their way, may it remind you that the spirit of Christmas is always there, waiting to be rediscovered.

Zelda is following the theories of child psychologist Wynn Jeffries, author of The Free Child (and, as it happens, K.O.'s neighbor). K.O. is particularly horrified by his edict to "bury Santa under the sleigh," and she's out to prove that Wynn and his ideas are full of…snow. He's not going to ruin her nieces' Christmas! Too bad the guy's so darned attractive…. RAINY DAY KISSES is a delightful romantic comedy at Christmas—or any other time of year! Seventeen years ago Susannah Simmons was a career girl who knew nothing about babies. But after babysitting her infant niece, Michelle, Susannah learned that one determined—and screaming—baby can make the corporate world look like…child's play. Thank goodness for her charming neighbor Nate Townsend. Now he's her charming husband, and Susannah's a mother as well as an aunt. And every Christmas Eve, Michelle tells her cousins how their mom met their dad—a story in which she plays a starring role!

A delightful tale of three friends, three wishes, and one Christmas when anything can happen, by a USA Today–bestselling author. When three friends visit a shopping-mall Santa on a lark, the jolly old elf is full of mysterious predictions about the thing they’re all wishing for: the perfect man. Or at least men who are perfect for them. Riley Erickson’s fiancé turned out to be a dud, dumping her for her bridesmaid three weeks before the wedding. But Santa says that she’s soon going to meet her ideal man in a memorable way. And he predicts that a new man is about to come into Jo’s life. What on earth does that mean? She’s pregnant and already has her hands full with the perfectly stubborn husband she’s got. Noel has given up completely on ever finding her perfect match. But apparently Noel is going to get a good man to go with that house she’s trying desperately to buy. These friends are about to discover that Christmas wishes can come true, because in spite of romantic setbacks and derailed dreams, this truly is the most wonderful time of the year! Previously published Praise for Three Christmas Wishes “[Three Christmas Wishes]is filled with Roberts’s trademark humor along with a generous serving of family, friends, and holiday cheer plus three sweet romances.” —The Romance Dish “This is small-town living at its best. Right down to the newspaper reporter. I laughed and ooh and awed with the rest of the characters, all of which are top notch in their roles. I would recommend this book to anyone. It would even make a good movie. I need to go brush up on Ms. Roberts’ other holiday reads.” —The Good, the Bad, and the Unread
