This story takes us to the depression. In today's times, it's hard to imagine, walls with holes that the cold air penetrates or living each day in small farm house that's barely standing, but for the family it was better than a tent.I enjoyed the Shoemaker family. Alice and Herbert do the best they can to keep love growing and hope alive. I really like Alice's unique plan to sell eggs to provide Christmas.Carlene Havel's novel really makes you think of the important things, especially around the holidays.
