#amreading #Christmasfavorites

It is Christmas Eve and I am reading.

I am reading some of my family's favorite Christmas books. Why are they the favorites? Each is very different in approach, style and illustration.  These are the ones that get read, year after year after year.

It is not what you give, but the thought that went into it...

Like Lucy, I received one of the mini cast iron stoves one year.


Recognize and celebrate many traditions


 It's the classic and Grandma Moses...enough said


A sweet story of people and animals 
creating the magic of Christmas together, the illustrations make this one special...


A beautifully illustrated story with a wonderful message...


A little humor and a different perspective...


 Who doesn't love reading rhyme scheme?



A Carol from the northern lands beautifully recreated...

A little poetry and modern art keep the season fresh...


The Christmas Story 
with lovely messages about grace and graciousness... 




A classic story beautifully illustrated by Keats


Jeffers and Wells bring you the cutest dog 
living every young child's Christmas dream...
