Review of Airport Christmas by Judy Moore

The first story in this new, sweet holiday series.
Who would ever think that being stranded at the Denver airport for three days over Christmas could be fun? It turns out to be the adventure of a lifetime for thirteen-year- old Jack and his younger siblings Ethan and Lily who are traveling alone from their mother’s in San Diego to their father’s in Florida. Jack is a bit of a wheeler-dealer who is thrilled to be out from under parental supervision, Ethan a comic book enthusiast and caricature artist, and Lily a budding matchmaker who won’t take no for an answer. Together, they learn to fend for themselves in an adult world and bring Christmas cheer – and even love – to other stranded passengers.

MY REVIEW:

AIRPORT CHRISTMAS WAS A VERY FAST READ FOR ME.  JACK, ETHAN AND LILY ARE STRANDED AT THE AIRPORT WITH THE OTHER PASSENGERS.  INSTEAD OF SPENDING THE NEXT THREE DAYS SULKING, THE CHILDREN COME UP WITH ALL DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES FOR THE OTHER PASSENGERS TO DO.  FROM DOING A SHOW TO PLAYING MATCHMAKER AND BUILDING A SNOWMAN.  I FOUND MY SELF LAUGHING AND SMILING AT THE CHILDREN'S ANTICS AND WHAT THEY COME UP WITH.  AIRPORT CHRISTMAS WAS SUCH A DELIGHTFUL READ.  JACK, ETHAN AND LILY ARE ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE.  THEY SHOWED EVERYONE AT THE AIRPORT THE TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS.  

AIRPORT CHRISTMAS IS A MUST READ.  IT WILL MAKE YOU BELIEVE IN THE TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS AGAIN AND PEOPLE IN GENERAL.  I LOVE JUDY'S WRITING AND CHARACTERS AND CAN'T WAIT TO READ MORE OF HER BOOKS. 5 STARS
