Customer Reviews

I wish I could give it nine stars

I'd had this anthology a number of years and ran across it as I was preparing for the holidays, and once I began leafing through it, I couldn't put it down. It is filled with classics (Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus, 'Twas the Night Before Christmas) as well as others you may never have heard of. Primarily prose, there are also poems by ee cummings and Robert Frost. Selections are ordered alphabetically by author so you get a wonderful juxtaposition of material as you page through works by Arthur C. Clarke, Dylan Thomas and many many others. You will love this anthology, especially if you or your family are looking for something to read during the holidays.
