The novella tells the tale of a remarkable woman named Fanny Forester, who is often referred to as "Miss Santa Claus." Fanny is a warm and benevolent figure, known for her generosity and kindness. She has made it her mission to bring joy, comfort, and hope to those in need, particularly during the Christmas season. The story is set in the late 19th century, a time when the Pullman Palace Car Company was a significant player in the railroad industry. Miss Santa Claus finds her way to the Pullman cars, where she encounters various characters, each with their own story and struggles. With her unwavering spirit of compassion, she touches the lives of the people she meets, helping them find happiness and solace, even in the face of adversity. As Christmas approaches, Fanny Forester's presence on the Pullman cars transforms the atmosphere, bringing about a sense of community and goodwill among the passengers. Her actions and the way she influences those around her ultimately highlight the true spirit of Christmas and the importance of selflessness and kindness. "Miss Santa Claus of the Pullman" is a heartwarming and sentimental story that embodies the values of charity, empathy, and the Christmas spirit. Annie F. Johnston's narrative style and ability to capture the essence of human goodness make this novella a delightful read for those seeking a touching and uplifting holiday story.

Known by many names from, The Story of a Nutcracker to The Nutcracker of Nuremberg-Alexandre Dumas' The History of a Nutcracker is both a translation and slight retelling of E.T.A. Hoffman's 1816 novella, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. In keeping with the themes of the original story, The History of a Nutcracker tells the tale of a litte girl named Marie and her Christmas toy. Gifted a magical nutcracker on Christmas, Marie watches as the titular Nutcracker goes forth to defeat the evil Mouse King and is then swept away to the fantastical kingdom of dolls. Shifting away from Hoffman's darker elements, Dumas' version of events lend themselves to a whimsical adventure more suitable for younger readers and was the inspiration for Pyotr Tchaikovsky's 1892 ballet, The Nutcracker.

"My door is on the latch tonight, The hearth fire is aglow. I seem to hear swift passing feet -- The Christ Child in the snow." Reba, the minister's new wife, was spirited, vigorous, courageous, and clever. She was also invincibly, incurably happy -- so that the minister seemed to grow younger every year. Reba doubled his joys and halved his burdens, tossing them from one of her fine shoulders to the other like feathers. She swept into the quiet village life of Beulah like a salt sea breeze. Now she has a plan -- one involving a few small verses she has penned. For there are rebellious youths and some contention in the church that threatens to split it . . . The Romance of a Christmas Card is a quick, sweet holiday read that makes it hard for the reader not to feel festive and appreciative for all the gifts in their life. Taking the reader to a tiny village in New Hampshire sometime in the early 1900s, this story is one of forgiveness, redemption and a powerful kind of love that makes anything, including a popular Christmas card, seem magical. Kate Douglas Wiggin (1856 - 1923) was an American educator and author of children's stories, most notably the classic children's novel Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. She started the first free kindergarten in San Francisco in 1878 (the Silver Street Free Kindergarten). With her sister during the 1880s, she also established a training school for kindergarten teachers. Kate Wiggin devoted her adult life to the welfare of children in an era when children were commonly thought of as cheap labor.

Julekalender for voksne om tro, kirke og kristendom. Der er et afsnit til hver dag op til jul, til og med 25. december.Desuden er der syv nyskrevne salmer, og for hver dag er der en rubrik med fun facts, "På denne dato".Fra forordet: "Jeg har bestræbt mig på at lave en julekalender med meget forskellige tekster. Man kan se nogle af teksterne som små korte prædikener eller løse refleksioner. Andre har en mere oplysende karakter – dog blandet op med mine tanker om emnet. Endelig har nogle tekster en klummeagtig form. Nogle af kapitlerne er relativt letlæste, andre kræver måske lidt mere. Men når man kun skal læse et kapitel om dagen, går det nok, tænker jeg. Jeg håber desuden, at tekstforskelligheden gør julekalenderen sjovere og mere interessant at læse".
