Excerpt from Kristy's Queer ChristmasThe way Kristy came to have a queer Christ mas at all, was this: she had been very ill at her grandmother's, and though she tried her best, and the good doctor tried his best, she could not get well enough to go home for Christmas.This was a great grief, of course, for all the girls were having fine times in town, Christ mas trees and all sorts of festive doings, and Kristy thought so much about it all and felt so bad about it that the doctor began to shake his head again.So Mamma told Kristy that she might plan anything she liked, to celebrate the day, and if it were possible, she should have her way.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
