Download Lulu's Christmas Story: A True Story of Faith and Hope During the Great Depression AudioBook Free
Xmas is eagerly awaited by Lulu, a young girl living in a little Wisconsin town during the Great Depression. Expectation is changed into anxiety when Daddy loses his job, doubts about Santa flicker, which Shirley Temple doll seems further away than ever. Mama shows her own brutal Xmas as an orphan, adding new worries. But it's Lulu's deep faith and vibrant hope that continues her getting excited about each new day and the glorious gift of Christmas. In her coming in contact with memoir, Ludmilla Bollow, an award-winning playwright and novelist, recounts the year before her family's toughest Xmas. There are a haunting face with freaks at a circus sideshow, the heartbreaking lack of the town's recluse who was simply focused on finding true love, a disastrous Thanksgiving at Grandma's, and, of course, the long-awaited Xmas! Lulu's heart of love and delight radiates throughout this psychological recall of family life during hard times.
