In this adventurous and compelling fictional story it takes St. Joseph, Gabriel, and Santa to get a family all together for Christmas 1866. From a stalking cougar, to a wolf encounter, to a little girl falling into a hole in the ice, and other crises, this story keeps the reader turning its pages. Deep in Peace River Country in northern Canada, five children have been allowed to stay home on their own for what is supposed to be a three-day period while the adults leave for a town 45 miles away in bitterly cold weather. Brittany, a capable and mature 11-year-old, has been left in charge and is delighted by the prospect of taking care of her sibling and her three cousins. However, a serious life-threatening accident with the horse and wagon occurs with dire consequences. Fortunately, the children are being watched over from above by St Joseph, Gabriel the Angel, and Santa Claus. The characters in the story are based on real-life children and adults, and make perfect sense to anyone who believes in saints, angels, miracles - and Santa Claus. The Three Saints of Christmas is a story for children (from 5 to 95). The Three Saints will appeal to anyone who has an active imagination and the desire to explore the meaning of Christmas though fantasy and a non-traditional approach. This delightful story will appeal to children as well as adults young and old, around the world.… (altro)

In this heartfelt tale we follow along a journey of both the soul and survival for this Alberta family. Young children left for just a few days in the 1800's face survival and fear. The parents of two of the children are in a terrible sleigh accident that leaves them unable to get help, let alone move without causing greater injury. An aunt who is working herself to the bone, and trying to do the work of many just to support herself and her children. The family is separated by pains of the heart, soul, and body, but can St. Nick, St. Joseph, and the Angel Gabriel reunite this torn family in time for Christmas?


This is a lovely tale that is sure to warm the heart and sting the eyes. It makes for a perfect read for the holidays, whether you believe or not. ( )
