Synopsis

In 1938, a girl named Lillian knows that the most beautiful pine tree in the forest is the one thing that will make her Christmas special. In 2008, Kaye’s family’s car slides off the road in a Christmas Eve blizzard and they have to seek out shelter in the snowy woods. Seventy years separate them, but Lillian and Kaye’s paths are ready to cross when Kaye looks out the car window and spots a ghostly face glowing brightly through the falling snow. . . .Newbery Honor–winning author Marion Dane Bauer spins a third spooky tale to complement her previous stories, The Blue Ghost and The Red Ghost.
