Christmas on Mill Street

A Novel

By: Joseph Walker

Narrated by: Joe Barrett

Take A Christmas Story and mix in The Sandlot and you'll get Joseph Walker's charming holiday novel, Christmas on Mill Street.

It's 1962, and young Sam Andrews just moved to Utah from Arizona. A tall, overweight, semi-clumsy outsider, he's still trying to fit in with the neighborhood boys. When discussion about sledding down the infamous Mill Street begins, Sam pipes in and says he'll do it. The problem is, he has seen snow only in pictures and has never ridden a sled. And to top it all off, Mill Street is practically a vertical drop, with two deadly curves. A rider going too fast would shoot right off Mill Street and into the Kimballs' thorn-filled pyracantha bushes. But there's no turning back now.

Listeners will laugh out loud at the adventures and many poignant lessons leading up to Christmas Day and Sam's eventual duel with Mill Street. Christmas on Mill Street is a delightful and inspirational family gift for the holiday season.

Great

This is a wonderful story brings memories of childhood to life. Enjoyed the story immensely.

Best story to get in Christmas spirit!

December 2 the sun is out and I want to put up Christmas stuff but there is no Christmas spirit. I search for a book and this was what I found the narration is fantastic. It’s a cool and well loved the book. I can’t wait for my family to listen to it with me next I know that everyone will love it just as much as I did highly recommend.

Good Christmas story

Great story line. Good narration. Cute story about a fourth grade boy and his sled

Heartwarming

Equally nostalgic and delightful. I laughed and cried. It is a book full of heart.

Fun book. Even better listening to it!

Laugh out loud book. Brought back a lot of memories from days gone by. Definitely recommend.
