Plot Summary of The Modern Magi: A Christmas Fable

"The Modern Magi, A Christmas Fable, is a most wonderful, delightful little book, on living the true meaning of Christmas, the whole year through. Carol Lynn Pearson brings home this meaning poignantly, simply, and beautifully through the character of Annabelle Perkins.

Annabelle will touch your heart and maybe even spur you on, to perform your own selfless Christmas miracle(s). Even though the ending was predictable early on, this, in no way whatsoever, detracted from the beauty of this fable.

God talks to us constantly, yet one just has to be still and listen, have faith and follow what that inner voice is guiding us to do. Annabelle heard God speaking to her and she followed her heart and performed miracles for others while on earth. Was she an angel or a messenger or both? Only you, the reader, can decide that. Annabelle's good will was able to live on long after Annabelle's body left earth.

This little fable will warm you, bring tears to your eyes, and remind you once again, that God does indeed work in mysterious ways though many people who touch our lives.

A wonderful book to share with the entire family!!! I loved it!!
