About the Book: Johnny’s wish had come
true. His family would be visiting his grandparents for Christmas. His
grandparents lived in an old house in New England where his father had been
born. The family together, the smells of the cookies baking, the snowy
Christmas tree farm with trees of so many shapes and sizes, and most of all the
wooden horse he had told his brother Liam about would make this the best
Christmas ever. In his grandparents’ attic Johnny finds many treasures, but the
wooden horse he remembered so well is missing. How can Johnny make his
brother’s Christmas wish come true?
