Synopsis

Who ever heard of a kid who didn't like Christmas? Meet Emily Primm, a thoroughly modern New York girl who sees herself as an adult trapped in a ten-year-old's body. She's never more anxious to slip the bonds of childhood than at Christmas, when all the grownups around her seem to become kids themselves.

But when she's given an unusual gift - a dollhouse that once belonged to a great-great grandmother, Emily's strangely drawn to the heirloom. So much so that she finds herself whisked away to the house's real-life counterpart thirty miles - and over a hundred years - from home.

Emily spends Christmas Eve, 1905 with the real house's residents, the Forrests. She becomes fast friends with young Grace and her little brother Harry, a bookish boy who may hold the key to sending Emily back home. As she shares the Forrests' old-fashioned celebration - and learns her connection to their family - Emily views the holidays, her own family, and her youth in a new way. She's eager to go home and back to the childhood she'd almost let slip away.
