Olga wishes desperately for a Christmas tree. Will that wish ever come true? Olga and her parents, the struggling immigrant owners of the 'Plump Pierogi', celebrate Ukrainian Christmas two weeks after all her classmates, and they have never closed their café for more than an evening. Money is tight and not to be spent on 'extras' like decorations. But the magical winds of change blow, so maybe this holiday will be different ... Sharing a true tale about her mother's experience as a girl, Mary Catherine Rolston's delightful story is enhanced by her father's watercolour images.
