Publisher Description

In a dusty corner of an old bookstore, young Joachim unearths an Advent calendar. As he opens the first door, he discovers the amazing story of Elisabet, a little girl who took an amazing trip back in time to be present at the birth of Jesus. Each subsequent door reveals more of Elisabet's story, and the listener gains new insight to the Nativity and the true meaning of Christmas.

    " Not really that great, but I suppose it was OK for an untraditional advent-style "devotional". "

    " A different kind of Christmas story following a lost little girl back through time all the way to Bethlehem. Each chapter was a set structure that was repeated chapter after chapter. Young teen readers might like it better than I did. "
