In 2065, the Lilliput Project created Lina – the first six-inch-tall winged girl – as the solution to a worldwide energy and food crisis. Isolated in a compound amidst the forests of Denmark, Lina has grown up aware of only one purpose: learn how to survive in a world filled with hawks, bumblebees, and loneliness. However, on the eve of her sixteenth birthday, she discovers that she’s not the only teenager her size. Six ‘Toms’ were created shortly after Lina, and now her creators need to prove to the world that tiny people are the next logical step in human evolution. In other words, they need to prove that reproduction is possible.
Um. No thanks. Lina’s already fallen in love with a boy she met online named Jack. Only he has no idea that thumbelina1847 could literally fit inside his heart.
When her creators threaten to hurt Jack unless she chooses a husband from among the ‘Toms’, Lina agrees to star in a reality TV series. Once the episodes begin to air, the secret of her size is out. Cut off from any contact with the outside world, Lina assumes Jack is no longer interested. After all, what guy would want to date a girl he can’t even kiss?
Slowly, very slowly, she befriends the six young men who see her as their only ticket to happiness. Perhaps she can make just one guy’s dream of love and companionship come true. But her creators have a few more twists in store for her that she never thought possible.
She’s not the only one playing to the cameras.

The Christmas season is about celebrating joy with family, spending time together, giving gifts and creating memories and traditions that will last for a lifetime and be passed down for generations to follow. Unfortunately, in today’s world Christmas has become synonymous with only the materialistic aspect of gift giving and food.
Christmas Ideas supports and celebrates the true values of Christmas. It is filled with Christmas ideas and highlights how fulfillment can be achieved… even on a budget.
One of the family focused Christmas ideas is the Advent Calendar and/or Advent Wreath. The Calendar and/or wreath can be one the first Christmas decoration you start with on December 1st. Both will start your holiday season with excitement and style.
Of course one the best decorating Christmas ideas is the Christmas tree. You will learn the legends and history of this extraordinarily versatile holiday symbol.

The section on Christmas Carols offers enchanting glimpses of old world Christmas celebrations.
Sending and receiving Christmas cards was one of the best Christmas ideas for keeping in touch with family and friends during the holiday season. Over the years that tradition has fallen out of favor. When you read about the history of the Christmas card, you will want to go out and buy a box of cards to send this year.
One of the best Christmas ideas is for you to grab your favorite beverage and curl up on a sofa. Call the family and children to join you while you read the section on Santa Claus of the North Pole, his Elves and his Reindeer’s to them. You will find references of when Santa started living at the North Pole, his secret home, a litany of names he goes by and insight to his elves and Reindeer’s.
