When an eleven-year-old begrudgingly moves just before Christmas, a surprise invite to Mr. Lemoncello’s holiday party changes everything. Eloise Dobyns and her mom are on their fifth move in five years and this time they’ve found themselves in Ohio just two weeks before Christmas. Eloise is out of friends, patience, and holiday cheer, but she hasn’t met Mr. Lemoncello yet. After receiving a personal invite to Mr. Lemoncello’s legendary annual holiday party, Eloise has two choices: stay home, and continue sulking over this latest move or, go to the party and find out what all the fuss is about. After all, Mr. Lemoncello and his library may just have everything Eloise needs to settle in and cheer up in her new environment.
