In her quaint New England town the leaves have just begun to change, but Lucy is already thinking of Christmas. She begins to make presents for her family: a pincushion for her mother, a doll for her sister, and a pen-wiper for her best friend. For the whole family, her parents have ordered a new modern range stove. The days grow colder and shorter, the snow grows deeper, and everyone grows more excited. Finally, the day arrives Lucy and her family travel to the South Danbury Church on Christmas to exchange gifts, sing carols with the whole town, and perform in the Christmas pageant. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePoet laureate Donald Hall (author of \u003ci\u003eThe Ox-Cart Man\u003c\/i\u003e and the companion to this book, \u003ci\u003eLucy's Summer\u003c\/i\u003e) grew up spending as much time as he could on his grandfather's farm in rural New Hampshire.
