Summary:
In this delightful Christmas collection, author Irene Morck has taken
a number of stories from her bestseller, FIVE PENNIES: A PRAIRIE
BOY'S STORY and adapted them for children of all ages. Based on her
father's childhood years in a Danish pioneer community, APPLES AND
ANGEL LADDERS follows a family through their most memorable
Christmases. Accompanied by Muriel Wood's beautifully realized
paintings, this collection vividly recreates the hardships and simple
joys of homesteading life and the Christmas season that offered the
kind of riches that never could be bought. This is a collection that
will be shared by grandparents, parents and their children, and
become a keepsake to be handed down and cherished for years to come.
