Brief Summary:
In 1944, Molly is a ten year-old girl who worries that Christmas will not be happy. Her father is a doctor in the war in Europe. Each year he has sent a box of presents but as this year's holiday draws closer, it seems as if the package won't ever arrive.

Part of the American Girls Collection, the book includes historical information at the end about life in the 1940's.
