Changed by Christmas — Elizabeth W. Watkins

It is a time of joy and celebration, of peace on Earth and goodwill toward men. But for Charles, this Christmas season is an unhappy reminder of all he’s lost. He was once a man of some fortune until a devastating fire destroyed his business and left his family destitute. Now, Charles has no choice but to seek out a merciful creditor to ease the burden of poverty. Door after door closes to him, until he sees one last sign: Scrooge and Marley. Feeling a final glimmer of hope, he knows that the fate of his family rests on the mercy of Mr. Scrooge . . . Brimming with warmth and holiday cheer, Changed by Christmas is a timeless tale of determination and hope in the face of hardship, and serves as a sweet reminder of the incomparable power of redemption.
