Publisher's summary

In this charming collection of novellas, join three generations of residents from Mapleview, Michigan, who are longing for love—and finding it—during the most wonderful season of the year.

"Hopes and Fears" by Amanda Wen

Emma Trowbridge is determined to give her students the Christmas pageant of a lifetime. The last person she wants to encounter in her one-room schoolhouse is her childhood rival, Frederick Oberstein. Truth be told, he would rather be far away himself. Can they learn to see each other in a new light—and embrace a new season of hope and faith together?

"While Mortals Sleep" by Janyre Tromp

While World War II rages overseas, reporter Eleanor Sweers returns home from the West Coast where she faces the death of her sister and her nightmare of Christmases past. But the home front isn’t safe either: a bomb has landed in the middle of the US, right on the Sweers family property. Now news-minded Eleanor and family friend Gideon Braum may have to choose between the scoop of a lifetime and the love of a lifetime.

"The Wondrous Gift" by Deborah Raney

High school football coach Caleb Janssen and music teacher Rachel Hamblin bond when they both lose their jobs at the county’s Christian high school. But when they discover their plans for the future are mutually exclusive, the fallout threatens to tear them apart.

Excellent compilation

I’m ready to visit this “little town” after reading these stories! The perfect jaunt through history, each tale depicts strong characters wrestling with unique troubles while clinging to the Hope born on Christmas morning even longer ago.

Charming Christmas Story

Three authors, three stories, three time periods: these are all connected by the gossamer thread of a one-room school house near Grand Rapids, Michigan, where Jesus is ever present through generations. Readers will find historical romance, mystery, intrigue, and modern sentiment all wrapped up in this charming trilogy. I highly recommend adding O Little Town to your holiday reading list this year. I enjoyed this audio version very much.
