The little Christmas villages you see on table tops may look peaceful, but two children discover there's a lot more to them than meets the eye.

After Rudy and Amanda tumble into the village of Belle Center, they find they have a new family and face new challenges. The villagers are upset because their library disappeared and a wise man is missing from the church's nativity scene. They try to figure out who is behind the mystery but only the two children know the truth: someone in the other world -- the world of Big People where the children come from -- is to blame.

Christmas Village is written for children, but adults will love it, too.

Jack Gilhooly is also the author of Smokey and Boomer..
