Kirsten and her family will be celebrating their first Christmas in America. Kirsten wants to keep some of their old Swedish traditions alive in the new country, so she secretly plans a Saint Lucia celebration. But everything depends on a trip to town with Papa, and he's too busy to leave the farm. At last they go--and get caught in a terrible blizzard. It's up to Kirsten to keep herself and Papa safe through the night. When she finally gets home, the candles in the little cabin glow with a special holiday warmth.

I'm Sorry,
I entered a review for a doll dress we purchased that is pictured on the book we purchased at the same time. I tried to delete the review but am a novice with the navigation of the website so apparently was not able to do so in a timely manner. Daneil K. has been wonderful to work with in trying to fix my mistake. You can trust Daneil K for any online purchase!
Sincerely,

4.0 out of 5 stars Review of book purchase
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2011

My only problem is that, even though the book was listed as "new", there was a large 2"x4" sticker on the front cover that had been partially removed. I wouldn't have expected something like that. We were able to get most of the paper and adhesive off the front cover, but it would've been nice to know that I would have to deal with that before purchasing it. Other than that, the book was in good condition and arrived quickly.

I bought this copy for the library I work for (as a replacement). I have never read any of the American Girl series, but I know from being around the kids in the library that they seem to really enjoy them. They are chapter books, but not really long. It's a good stepping stone for kids from picture books to the really big chapter books.
