Publisher's Summary
Bristol 1927.
Ten-year-old Magda Brodie’s world is torn apart when her mother dies in the workhouse two weeks before Christmas.
Her wastrel father arranges for her sisters to be sent to their grandparents in Ireland and for her younger brother to be adopted, leaving Magda distraught with worry as her family are scattered far and wide.
Magda, as the eldest girl, is sent to live with her Aunt Bridget who, for whatever reason, holds a bitter resentment towards Magda.
But adversity makes Magda strong and determined. She dreams of happier times, to reunite her family and make her Christmas Wish come true.
