Oh, the beautiful old story! Of the little child that lay In a manger on that morning, When the stars sang in the day ...

From the Bassett family's holiday meal in An Old Fashioned Thanksgiving to Little Effie receiving a grand surprise in A Christmas Dream, and How It Came True, the girls and boys of this simpler time bring joy to our hearts today.
