Why read it?

1 author picked The Legend of Holly Claus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is the book that taught me not to dismiss wonder as something that’s only for children. This warmest of winter tales helped me see that wonder is a light to illuminate times of grief and loss; a fiery hope that combats fears; and a faith that defies the circumstances that seek to steal our joy. I have never encountered a fictional world that felt more like home.

From Alexandria's list on fantasy to reignite your sense of wonder.
