Twelve Tales of Christmas Eve

The Twelve Tales of Christmas Eve, inspired by the carol The Twelve Days of Christmas,” are twelve short stories packed with all the love and giving in a small town that make Christmas a season of miracles. Alex Andrews in The Teddy Bear Tale” searches for the perfect Christmas gift for girlfriend Juliana Nace; Randy Wolters tries to recreate his mom’s gingerbread boys in Like Mommy Makes.” In The Columbus Street Christmas Pageant,” Hazel Gilmore works so hard keeping her pageant Broadway-ready that she forgets the real meaning of Christmas. Christmas traditions, Christmas heartaches, Christmas joys—each takes center stage in The Twelve Tales until in The Last Chapter” the whole town turns out for the Christmas pageant. As the lights dim on the pageant, the lights have just begun to shine on a new Christmas tradition.Shearer, Pamela is the author of 'Twelve Tales of Christmas Eve', published 2007 under ISBN 9781424171781 and ISBN 1424171784.
