Mary Ann, I’m sure it was an enjoyable endeavor, choosing a topic then creating a story line. I was amazed with your creativity and expediting the entire process. You have a very special gift. Thank you for sharing your book with me. Sharlene, Ct.

Holly is a story that should be made into a movie, it has the Christmas Spirit. And that is what it's all about.

Holly gives us hope that our children will also find their beacon that leads them to their family and friends.

My great-granddaughter, Kathryn and I read this story together. We both loved Holly's story and Kathryn wanted to look for Holly's light.

Holly
WOW! what a fantastic story for kids. Gives a lesson on how being different is very special and how gifted the author is to be different than her peers .......for you and only you have these special qualities. Hooray, Mary Ann, it's nice to hear Holly has made it, just as an important reindeer as her fellow brothers.

In Holly's Christmas, a lonely reindeer gets the chance to learn who her real friends are. Over the course of the story, Holly blooms from a shy little reindeer into the star of the show.

Holly’s Christmas was a wonderful story. I really enjoyed reading it with my two-year old daughter, Ayling, during the holidays. My daughter enjoyed the book so much, we read it almost every day before going to bed!!! Even though she is only two, she remembers parts of the story and tries to pretend to be reading it!!! I am definitely looking forward to reading more wonderful stories from Mary Ann.
