Wonderful Treasure for the Holidays

I was given this book by my mother in law when I first married. I knew it had A Christmas Carol in it and I love that story. So I read it not cover to cover but as I reread my favorites, I investigated what other authors were included in this book. Tolstoy, Agatha Christie, LM Alcott, Hawthorne, Conan Doyle…these are the minds who thought Christmas worth writing about. I have purchased another book as the first one I got for Christmas in 1995 is falling apart with wear. Proof to me that I treasure it! I believe if you love Christmas, this book is for you!

Wonderful Christmas Collection

I picked up the beautifully bound Family Classics Edition for the holidays. It is a wonderful collection of Christmas stories as well as Christmas songs. The stories include the favorites of A Christmas Carol and The Gift of the Magi, but it also includes stories of Christmases in other countries such as Germany, France and Italy. Because all of the stories are relatively short, it is such a wonderful way to bring the family together during the holiday season in front of the fireplace, sip on hot apple cider and read out loud the tales of Christmas. It is sure to get everyone into the Christmas spirit.
