Poignant stories of two orphaned sisters who must leave their home to live with their grandmother in Camden Falls.
I loved this book. I love this series. It is a reminder of the simple yet exciting stories that I read when I was a girl. <BR/><BR/>Flora and Ruby are orphaned when their parents died a year ago. They went to Camden Falls to live with their grandmother, Min. The books are about their adjustment to living there. I enjoyed 'TIS THE SEASON immensely because it was about Christmas. The traditions of a small town were fascinating and the kindness for others was overwhelming. <BR/><BR/>But this book wasn't dripping with honey. There is a particular story line of one of the kids in the book having to deal with abuse. One scene actually brought me to tears. The complex problems of the children are written with simplicity, and the problems are just a fact of life and not written with too much drama. I liked that because I think kids need to know that these things do happen in life, but we have to have the strength to live through them. <BR/><BR/>I loved the description used in the book. Ms. Martin described the decorating of Camdem Falls and I wanted to live there. This is another successful book in a wonderful series!

I think this book is very sad because if I were flora and my little brother was ruby then we would be sad if we couldn't spend Christmas with our parents.
