The Country Christmas - Illustrated

by Frances Margaret Fox

Overview

The Country Christmas re-introduces us to the Mulvaneys with whom Frances Margaret Fox made us acquainted in How Christmas Came to The Mulvaneys. They are as funny as ever, and by moving to country acquire a larger field for their most interesting development. Stubbins is the quaint little chap of former times. Hannah is still her mother's able lieutenant, and Mrs. Mulvaney the resourceful general of old. The family fortunes are decidedly on the mend, and by the time Christmas arrives and a new "Pa" is secured in the person of Welcome Hodgkins, its felicity might be said to be at a maximum. A bright, clever story it is, with just a suggestion of pathos that makes it thoroughly human. The illustrations fit the story beautifully.
