This title is suitable for children of ages 10 to 14 years. Christmas is coming! Along with the excitement, life holds its challenges for the Beech Bank Girls. Holly faces the reality of financial crisis at home; Rachel is worried about her sister; a sledging incident shakes the girls - and a very different nativity play brings home the true meaning of Christmas. Family, friendship and faith issues - the Beech Bank Girls face them together in this, their third book.

Ages 10 to 14 years. Six teenage friends draw nearer to God and to each other through real life issues in these moving, honest and fun accounts. Amber, Holly, Willow, Annie, Rachel and Chloe share their laughter, their tears, their hopes, their fears and their secrets with each other and with us. Miracle and party included!

A tumultuous century dawns and two girls are born: one, a daughter of an English aristocrat; the other, the only child of a German cook. Harriet is privileged, wilful and impulsive. Emilie is polite, calm and studious. The two girls - so very different - become 'forever sisters' as they learn and play together in the peaceful Herefordshire countryside. But as the century grows older and they mature with it, events beyond their world profoundly change everything and everyone. War, hatred and fear sever their bond and tear them apart. Emilie reluctantly returns to the nation into which she was born but has never known; Harriet's deep desire for purpose takes her to the horror of the Western Front. Will the two friends survive the darkness that has engulfed Europe? Will they find new friendships and, perhaps, even love? Will they ever see each other again? They can only persevere and hope that the world they once knew might be restored.
