Waiting for the Magic by Patricia MacLachlan

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!
