Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Scarred by a tragic accident, Andy Gilbert has never felt more alone in the world, especially with the holidays approaching. His job as a telegram carrier unfortunately involves delivering bad news, specifically notification of the death of a loved one on the battlefields of World War II. No one wants to see him coming their way, and the isolation has all but destroyed Andy's spirit. But a chance encounter with an older widow, Estella Nelson, brings hope as she recognizes Andy's pain and reaches out in a way that will change their lives as well as affect their small Pennsylvania town. Reminiscent of It's a Wonderful Life, Peterson's sweet novella is a perfect holiday treat with crossover appeal. Recommended for most libraries. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
