Lion in the Box, The

Posted April 26th, 2009 by SarahKate
SarahKate's Notes:

Margerite was born in 1889 and this book holds many values of a time past. A widow works in an office and leaves her five children in the apartment at home, and they take care of each other with such tenderness. It is a story of a simple Christmas made surprisingly abundant with "the lion in the box." A gem.
