On the Ninth Day of Christmas...

On the 9th day of Christmas my true love gave to me 9 ladies dancing

Whenever I think of Christmas in literature, that scene at the beginning of Little Women comes to mind. So although it technically isn't a Christmas book, I still think of it that way. That's why I was delighted to find today's prize, which is for a gently used hardback copy of Christmas Dreams: Portraits of Little Womenby Susan Beth Pfeffer. This is from a series of continuations of the characters from Little Women and this particular book happens to be set during Christmas for the March family.

About the Book (from Amazon.com): "Each of the girls has a choice to make about the beautiful brooch.

Meg's Christmas Dream: Meg would gladly exchange it for a gift for her father....

Jo's Christmas Dream: Jo behaves like a total scrooge and must learn the true spirit of Christmas.

Beth's Christmas Dream: Beth discovers what her sisters' and parents' lives would have been like without her.

Amy's Christmas Dream: Always happy to receive presents, Amy surprises everyone when she bestows a gift to a poor little girl.

This quartet of Christmas stories captures the joyful spirit of the holiday season."
