Stories of December: A collection of winter short stories

By Leland Dirks

Is there a month more bittersweet than December? The year draws to a close, filled with memories of love and loss, of joy and regrets. The nights grow longer until, at last, the longest night of the year comes with its own sort of magic.This collection of more than two dozen short stories gathers my most beloved winter tales, many in print for the first time. "Santa and the Border Collie," in both English and Polish versions, tells the story of a homeless boy and his dog who are befriended by a bell-ringing man named Nick. "The Tattoo" shows the connection between the black sheep of two generations of family. "Christmas Eve" is the tale of a puppy befriending a nicotine-craving fool. In "Christmas with a Collie" we learn of the first No l from a surprising teacher.Pour yourself a cup of tea or coffee and open this book for a taste of December.
