Dec 18 2014 Lingering in the Season Part 4
Savor the Season with Books!
Books are my thing. I adore the smell, the way treasured favorites fit in my hands, and the sight of books stacked on a coffee table—oh, what joys these bring. Couple books with Christmas, and I am giddy. Our Christmas book collection has grown over the years because of my passion, ok, yes, my addiction to books, books, and more books.
Carving out time to read stories (especially THE STORY) is a huge part of the Christmas season for me and my family. Lingering in the season with a book in front of the tree is pure pleasure.
Here are eleven of my favorite Christmas reads:
Christ in the Carols (devotional) by Christopher and Melodie Lane
52 Ways to Make Christmas Special Thomas Nelson Publisher
Christmas Stories for the Heart compiled by Alice Gray
The Christmas Box by Richard Paul Evans
Christmas in my Heart (series) by Joe L. Wheeler
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (funny-PG rated) by Barbara Robinson
Jotham’s Journey A Storybook for Advent (family read-aloud series of three) by Arnold Ytreeide
The Very First Christmas (beautiful family picture book) by Paul L. Maier
The Nativity (gorgeous pop-up book) by Francesca Crespi
The Legend of the Candy Cane (picture and storybook) by Lori Walburg
