Character Analysis
(Psst. Head on over to "Zuzu Bailey" for the deets on her.)
Pete Bailey
Pete Bailey is George's 9-year-old son, named for his grandpa. He's a typical kid who loves his dad and peppers him with questions on Christmas Eve—like, "How do you spell 'frankincense'?" and "How do you spell 'hallelujah.'" Like all of the kids, Pete prays for George in his time of trouble.
Janie Bailey
Janie, George's 8-year-old daughter, gets on his nerves on Christmas Eve by playing the same carol on the piano over and over again. After he storms out, she prays for him, hoping he'll be okay. And that's really all there is to say about Janie.
Tommy Bailey
Tommy is George and Mary's youngest kid, a 3-year-old. When George is experiencing his crisis, he holds Tommy and weeps.
