Patricia MacLachlan wrote Sarah Plain and Tall. Now she has a new book called Waiting for the Magic. This book would be fun to read during the holiday break. The story begins with a mom, dad and two children. Dad leaves for awhile and mom makes a big decision. She has always wanted a dog. So she and the kids go to the animal shelter to adopt a dog. Mom makes another big decision to adopt four dogs and a cat. Read this book to see how this family finds magic in togetherness. Have a Happy Holiday while reading a good book!
