A Very Different Christmas is the final book in a trilogy involving a family and their Christmas ornaments. In The Tale of the Nutcracker, we learned how a discarded and lonely nutcracker reinvented himself to become a cherished caregiver to a family's collection of Christmas ornaments. In The Ornament Hospital, we saw how the magic of Christmas brought new life to ornaments that were thought to have been broken and discarded. Finally, in A Very Different Christmas, we discover what happens years later to the family and their cherished ornaments. Will the ornaments continue to create fond memories, or will they finally be boxed up one last time?
This Christmas season, join our band of familiar ornaments in a new tale that takes them on a completely new adventure outside their normal surroundings. Are they ready for whatever lies ahead? You never know, but with the support of the family and the Ornament Hospital's nutcracker, they discover a very different Christmas!
