Publisher's Summary

In the run-up to Christmas, the point of the game has always been to find the parents' stash of not-yet-wrapped Christmas presents. But what a let-down it is if you actually find them! In these stories, you experience Christmas in a rural Midwest town in the 1940s and 1950s. Six rowdy children approach the day with a mixture of rampant greed, enforced piety, and a hunger for family traditions even as they are being created.

Ann Tudor is a Toronto-based writer of creative non-fiction whose current work includes memoirs and personal essay collections. She has a degree in English from DePauw University and an M.A.T. degree from Vanderbilt University. Her best-selling audiobooks include Tales from My Table, Rosie & the Angels, and I Love Pie.

Available commercially for the first time now are We Called Her Eileen and A Child's Midwestern Christmas.

At various times of her fascinating life she has been a church organist, craftsperson, wife-mother-grandmother, cook, student of the cello, hands-on healer, and editor for a library science publisher. From each of her vocations and avocations she has coaxed a little additional information on how to make it through the journey of life.
