Christmas Time Glitch When the joy of Christmas freezes, one boy has to press play. What if Christmas… glitched? After a rough hockey season and one too many missed shots, Oliver’s done with hockey—and with Christmas. But when a strange message flashes on his phone and a candy-cane door appears in the snow, he’s pulled into Gingerbread Town—a world powered by laughter, cocoa, and joy. The problem? The whole town is starting to glitch. With help from Rolo, a sugar-crazed mini reindeer, and Jingle, a calm gingerbread fixer, Ollie has to rediscover what it means to play, laugh, and keep the rhythm before Christmas Time runs out for everyone. A heartwarming holiday short story about courage, joy, and finding your spark again—even when the world freezes around you. Rosie Rochelle writes stories that blend imagination, faith, and hope.
