A delightful Christmas tale that will please anyone who has already enjoyed Fannie Flagg's FRIED GREEN TOMATOES or her other novels of the South. Would make a good present, too.

Campbell leaves behind the cold and damp of the oncoming Chicago winter to spend what he believes will be his last Christmas in the warm and welcoming town of Lost River, Alabama. There he meets the postman who delivers mail by boat, the store owner who nurses a broken heart, the ladies of the Mystic Order of the Royal Polka Dots Secret Society, who do clandestine good works. And he meets a little redbird named Jack, who is at the center of this tale of a magical Christmas when something so amazing happened that those who witnessed it have never forgotten it. Once you experience the wonder , you too will never forget A REDBIRD CHRISTMAS.
