Old Faves All in One Volume!

This is a lovely Christmas collection including popular carols and selections by Dickens, Hans Christian Andersen, L.Frank Baum, Kenneth Graham, Lucretia P. Hale, Clement C. Moore, and Luke, among others. Nowhere have I seen a book with so many of my favorites all together, although, as with most collections there are a few I could live without. While the editor assembled some reputable illustrators of the time (1986,) I would love to see a reprinting with the blander illustrations updated to reflect the multicultural nature of this holiday and our country. Still, on the whole, a good basic compilation of old Christmas standbys.
