 A Gnomes Christmas The Christmas book with a velvet cover has different stories about what the gnomes do at Christmas time. This book is sure to become part of your Christmas traditions. Limited quantities. |
The Autobiography of Santa Claus When I learned that Santa's autobiography was nine hours of listening, I couldn't believe it. Santa Claus is, of course, quite a celebrity, but does anyone, even the beloved saint, have that much to say about himself? I remained open and boy, am I glad I did. By listening to Santa Claus tell his story, I have learned more about the history of the world and America than I ever dreamed possible. I also now know the origin of every Christmas custom ever celebrated. What a clever and remarkable achievement this story is. I am recommending it to every family I know. |

Big Susan 55th Anniversary Edition Elizabeth Orton Jones Illustrated by Elizabeth Orton Jones I am so happy to introduce you to a book I adored as a child. To this day, my copy sits tattered and loved on a bookshelf back home. My mother could never part with it, and it has now survived countless readings to grandchildren. What a treat to have a 55th anniversary edition available now for new generations of children to enjoy. And what a special Christmas book -- perfect for a family with children of various ages. Older children who can read will enjoy it as a chapter book, and younger children will love it because it is all about a dollhouse, a doll family and the human child who cares for them. |
A Christmas Carol and Other Favorites Jim Weiss In these 3 classic stories, the listener learns, along with the characters, about human compassion in wonderfully entertaining ways. The common link is the perception of the holiday spirit as Christmas approaches. In Dickens' "Christmas Carol," the most famous of holiday stories, a series of ghostly spirits remind Ebeneezer Scrooge of the importance of caring for others, not only at Christmastime, but throughout the year. In O. Henry's "Gift of the Magi," a stunning surprise ending moves the listener to grasp the depth that the spirit of giving can take us humans. And in Bret Harte's lively tale of the California Gold Rush, "Dick Spindler's Family Christmas," Weiss careens along with wild humor, parading a host of marvelous characters past us. There are extremes of laughter and tears on this extraordinary story tape. Don't pass it by. |
The Donkey's Christmas Song Nancy Tafuri Illustrated by Nancy Tafuri An absolutely perfect first Christmas book, this gentle story of animals visiting a swaddled Jesus is full of simple, softly colored illustrations and quiet animal sounds. The animals individually file up and welcome the Child with their own soft language, except for the donkey, who is afraid his bray will be too loud. When he finally can't help blurting out his noisy ''Hee-aw! Hee-aw!'' the unexpected sound elicits a gurgling laugh from baby Jesus. Encouraged, the donkey snuggles close to keep the baby warm and cozy. It is the donkey's sweet presence that finally brings sleep to the Baby in the crib. It will be a rare child who can resist the animals, their sounds, and the curious, straw-filled bed and Child that were part of the first Christmas. This is a very sweet book. |

Draw Christmas Thumbprint Festive Art at your Fingertips This little treasure contains proof that you can do a lot with your thumbs! The Klutz folks have done it again with this entertaining little art book that makes even non-artists like me look like budding Picassos! The spiral-bound book contains lots of examples of festive art you can create by using the included red and green ink pads, and there are plenty of blank pages to make your own creations. You will see how some thumbprints and a few little pen squiggles can create prancing reindeer, snowmen, and, of course, Santa. Tuck a little inspiration into someone's hands (thumbs?!) this holiday! |
Mortimer's Christmas Manger Karma Wilson Illustrated by Jane Chapman One day while Mortimer Mouse is looking for crumbs, he spots his dream house on a table next to the Christmas tree. Climbing the tree, he discovers a creche scene. The tiny mouse lugs the statues out, saying, "There's no room for you here." Pulling the baby figurine out of his bed, Mortimer curls up to sleep in the warm hay on the wooden bed. Only later, in overhearing the family's story about the very first Christmas, does he realize what the Nativity represents. After replacing the figures, Mortimer sends up a prayer of his own, a surprise you just have to see yourself! Jane Chapman's marvelous illustrations truly capture Mortimer's personality. The story line is simple enough to be understood by young children, but still appeal to older kids as well. Mortimer's Christmas Manger is a holiday book to treasure year after year. |
The Little Fir Tree Margaret Wise Brown Illustrated by Jim Lamarche Once there was a little fir tree growing all alone in an open field. He was lonely being far away from the other trees of the forest. But one day, a gentle man digs him up and brings him home so his little lame son, who can't walk into the forest himself, can have a living tree for Christmas. "You have come to me from the wild green forest," said the little boy. "And you are part of my very own world. You have come to the great Celebration of Christmas." And what a celebration it is. Each spring, the man takes the tree back to the field. One winter, the tree waits and waits, but no one comes. That Christmas is the most special of all because... |

Room for a Little One A Christmas Tale Martin Waddell Illustrated by Jason Cockcroft What a lovely jewel of a holiday book this is! It is a cold winter's night, in a stable next to an inn. Old Dog needs a place to rest, so Kind Ox invites him to sleep next to his warm body in the hay. Stray Cat comes in and is afraid of Old Dog, but he says he will not hurt her, so she lies down beside them. Small Mouse creeps in, and, terrified by the cat's big eyes, quivers with fear. But Stray Cat tells Small Mouse she is safe there. Kind Ox says each time, "Come inside. There's always room for a little one here." Then, late in the night, Tired Donkey arrives with a weary man and woman by his side. "Come inside," Kind Ox calls again. The kindness the animals pay to one another creates the perfect environment for the Little One to be born. What a gift for our little ones, who are just hearing the Christmas story for the first time, or for anyone who treasures beauty and art. I don't believe I have ever seen such glorious illustrations. They are filled with light and color and a magical aura that invokes all the beauty and wonder of the first Holy Night. A treasure! |
