Fig Pudding
Description
Clifford Allyn Abernathy III (just Cliff, for short) is the oldest of six kids in a family that does everything-fighting, laughing, playing, eating, telling stories, and celebrating the holidays-in a big, often outlandish, and sometimes poignant way.
Taking the family from Christmas to Christmas, the chapters of Fig Pudding, narrated by eleven-year-old Cliff, are complete short stories in themselves-full of quick-paced, hilarious action and the warmth and love of a close-knit family. This new edition includes an original story.
