A fabulously written novel for all ages
Although I myself am well beyond the age of nine, I still find the novel to be quite enjoyable. The gorgeous writing style and the beautiful illustrations still make it a good read for a teenager, like myself. I did initially read it near the age prescribed, though, and thought that the "violence" was nothing that I, as a child, could not handle easily.Enjoy!

Perfect for almost all ages
I've loved this book since I first discovered it in the stacks of my local library. It reminded me why I love Christmas without being overly gushy and forceful with its message. The language is descriptive and enthralling. I would certainly recommend this novel to anyone.

Perfect for ages 7-12
Holly is a great role model for kids ages 7-14! She's very optimistic, has a great attitude, and will do anything for the ones close to her. I loved this book, but some children may be a little creeped about the villain. Another off is that it's a little long and some parts can be a little dry. Peace.
