When Rebecca Rowena Randall goes to live with her spinster aunts in Riverboro, Rebecca's aunts find her to be more of a handful than they bargained for. But even more surprising than the transition of Rebecca into a well-mannered young lady are the effects that Rebecca has on her aunts' humdrum lives. Rebecca, with her wide dark eyes and spirit that no walls can contain, will change their lives -- and the lives of everyone she meets -- forever.
Mrs. Bird thought, as the Christmas music floated in upon her
gentle sleep, that she had slipped into heaven with her new baby,
and that angels were bidding them welcome. But the tiny bundle by
her side stirred a little, though it was scarcely more than the
ruffling of a feather; and she awoke, drew the baby closer, and
listened to the voices outside brimming with joy:
"Carol, brothers, carol,
Carol joyfully,
Carol the good tidings,
Carol merrily "
"Why, my baby," whispered Mrs. Bird in soft surprise, "I had
forgotten what day it was. You are a little Christmas child, and we
will name you 'Carol' -- mother's little Christmas Carol "
