Alexander has just received some really bad news: his family is moving to a whole new city! And even though his mom says, “Wait, you’ll like it,” Alexander can’t bear to leave the people and places he loves, so he decides that he won’t move. His Orag family helps him understand that home is “where your family is, where you’re with the people who love you best of all.”

The Western Front. Christmas. 1914. Out of the violence comes a silence, then a song. A German soldier steps into No Man’s Land singing “Stille Nacht.” Thus begins an extraordinary time of camaraderie, music and peace.
