Five and Dime Christmas by Susanne Dietze, Patty Smith Hall, Cynthia Hickey, and Christina Lorenzen contains four historical novellas set during the 1880s. All four stories are set in Scranton, Pennsylvania with the female main character working at Woolworth�s Five and Dime. There is a Bible verse at the beginning of each novella that relates to the story. These are charming Christian stories that take place during the holiday season. The Christian element is nicely done (not preachy). I liked the characters in each story. The main characters are likeable and realistic. I especially liked Essie Banfield and Pastor Max Warner. The four stories are connected by Woolworth�s and the ladies who worked there. I thought the various authors writing styles as well as the story plots worked well together. I enjoyed the wonderful descriptions that brought the scenes alive. I could just envision the Woolworth�s with its lovely Christmas display in the window. I like that each one is a novella which makes them easy to read in a short timeframe (perfect for someone who is busy). The stories will get you in the mood for Christmas. Five and Dime Christmas has four cozy Christian tales that will touch your heart.
