The Fairies and the Christmas Child
1912
What if your birthday was swallowed by Christmas? That's the lonely reality for Chris, a boy who has never had a cake, a party, or a single day that belonged only to him. All year he waits for December 25th, when the whole world celebrates, but none of it is truly his. Then, deep in the winter woods, he finds a fairy ring and meets Titania, Queen of the Fairies, who opens the door to a hidden realm where forgotten children belong. As Chris is drawn into the fairies' world, he discovers that being born on the most wonderful day of the year might make him more special, not less. Lilian Gask crafts a wistful Edwardian fairy tale about a boy's search for belonging, the magic that waits in snowy forests, and learning to see yourself through kinder eyes.
