A family of lights finds itself out of place

The McBrights are a vintage Christmas-light family whose familiar place is the Evergreen Tree in Henbrook’s town square. When they are left in storage and then appear for sale in an antique store, Bernie sets out to get his family back where they belong. The setup links a change of circumstances with questions of home, belonging, and keeping a family tradition alive. Christmas Eve and the town-square tree give the story a seasonal setting, while the antique-store discovery shifts the McBrights away from their usual holiday role.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in Christmas stories
  • Young readers who enjoy family-centered tales about moving or finding a sense of home
  • Families looking for a holiday story featuring vintage decorations and a town tradition

Book overview

The McBrights are a family that lights up the town-literally!

 

Every Christmas Eve, the McBrights dazzle from the branches of the Evergreen Tree in Henbrook's town square, warming hearts with their old-fashioned glow. This year, however, something isn't quite right. The McBrights are left in their storage box for longer than usual, and when they are finally unpacked, they find themselves for sale at an antique store!

 

They may be vintage, but their bulbs aren't burnt out yet. Bernie McBright is determined to get his family shining where they belong. Could the store's newest visitor be the spark the McBrights need to light up Christmas once more?
