Description
""The Old Peabody Pew: A Christmas Romance of a Country Church"" is a heartwarming novella written by Kate Douglas Wiggin. Set in a small New England village, the story follows the lives of the congregation of a quaint country church, and the love story that unfolds between two of its members. The story is told through the eyes of the church's old wooden pew, which has witnessed the joys and sorrows of the congregation for many years. The main characters are Mary, a young woman who has recently returned to the village, and David, the local schoolteacher. As Christmas approaches, the two find themselves drawn to each other, but obstacles stand in their way. The story is filled with charming descriptions of the village and its inhabitants, and the author's love for the simple pleasures of rural life shines through. ""The Old Peabody Pew"" is a delightful read that captures the magic of the holiday season and the warmth of a close-knit community.1905. Another heartwarming tale from the American educator and writer, famous for her children's works including Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. The story begins: Edgewood, like all the other villages along the banks of the Saco, is full of sunny slopes and leafy hollows. There are little, rounded, green-clad hillocks that might, like their scriptural sisters, skip with joy; and there are grand, rocky hills tufted with gaunt pine trees-these leading the eye to the splendid heights of a neighbor State, where snow-crowned peaks tower in the blue distance, sweeping the horizon in a long line of majesty.
