*(There are 2 Austin family stories in here, but not the everything in the book belongs to that series, so it can be read as a stand-alone book of short stories.)*
A collection of poignant writings and reflections that give readers a glimpse of how the wonder of Christmas resonates in her personal life, which deeply involves her family and faith: "I think back to that Christmas when my husband and I did not know whether our little girl would live to grow up," she writes. "Between that Christmas and this, there have been many times when I have been in the fiery furnace, but I am beginning to understand who is in there with me and that when I need it, I am given courage I never knew I had."
For anyone yearning for the childlike wonder of the Christmas season to arise in them once more, *Miracle on 10th Street* is a rich and delightful read.
