| Summary | "What Christmas Did for Jerusha Grumble" by John D. MacDonald is a charming play for five girls written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the transformative power of Christmas and the theme of redemption through kindness and friendship. It explores the story of Jerusha Grumble, a seemingly cranky old maid, as she experiences a change in her attitude and approach to life during the Christmas season. In the play, a group of young girls decides to reach out to Jerusha Grumble, whom they perceive as unapproachable and unpleasant due to her past. Inspired by a recent encounter in which Jerusha kindly greeted one of the girls, they invite her to participate in Christmas activities, hoping to ignite a spark of joy in her life. Through their warm interactions, the girls discover Jerusha's desire to change and find happiness despite her past disappointments. Moreover, they help her prepare a special Christmas tree made from a broom, showcasing her hidden kindness and the depth of her emotions. By the end of the play, Jerusha experiences a happiness she thought lost, demonstrating that it’s never too late for redemption and joy, especially during the spirit of Christmas.
