Christmas is coming and Polly Flowerdew is bursting with excitement. What will she find in her stocking? Will the Wise Men visit as she has always hoped? Who knows what may happen at this special time of year? In the event, this Christmas isn't like any she has ever known, especially when three ships sail into the harbour.

This charming and light-hearted period tale will appeal both to new readers and existing fans of Elizabeth Goudge's work.
