In a delightful holiday story that stretches through eras, generations and families, the author cleverly connects historically based stories into one continuing tale built around a snow globe that comes to be passed along.
Through it, the reader discovers a window into the lives and souls of those who once owned the precious item…and eventually propelled it forward from the 18th century until the present time. Filled with humor and warm sentiment as well as stirring situations with which we all connect, Jamison delivers a moving storyline that has been said is “impossible to set down for even a moment.”
It all begins when young Emilio wants to find the perfect Christmas gift for his mother and discovers it in the window of McClatchey’s Treasure Trove. Little did the boy know at the time, however, what he was purchasing, for that snow globe—featuring a little cottage surrounded by pine trees—held a hidden story that stretched back through the ages. Nor did he realize that it captured the magic of Christmas for generations of families with whom it crossed paths over the decades.
