A Christmas Child

(1880)
A novel by

 
 
A Christmas Child by Mrs Molesworth is a sketch of boy-life, or rather, though Ted grows to boyhood, of child-life; for it is the child that is the more vividly portrayed. And a very sweet, tenderly drawn sketch it is, with life and reality manifest throughout. Very few can rival Mrs Molesworth in the power of making us see the children of fancy; and in this Christmas Child something has given to her pen a special power.
