Fun giveaway! I'm a sucker for Christmas stories... When I was a teenager, I read The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey to my little sisters, and it's still one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteNot a children's book, but my favorite Christmas story is the movie Love Actually :)

The Night Before Christmas was the one book I liked when I was little now I read it to my Grandchildren..
ReplyDeleteI am an email follower. My all-time favorite Christmas story is within another book. It is the Christmas pageant story that is found in a wonderful book named Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolpho Anaya.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas book is a little book I still have from childhood called Jolly Old Santa Claus. It was published by Ideals Publishing in 1969. Inside the cover it says it was edited by Maryjane Hooper Tonn, but no author is listed. My favorite parts of this book are the beautiful illustrations done by George Hinke. They are absolutely gorgeous and I've carried them in my memories all my life. I will always cherish this book.

Love your books! I already follow with email and just followed with the google friend connect, too, on blogger. My email is Cbowmanjahn at yahoo dot com. The book that most comes to mind as a child was "The Good Master." I got that from an adult friend once and it became my favorite book.

What a nice giveaway! We have so many holiday books we like, it's hard to choose one!
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey is a favorite, as is A Christmas Like Helen's by Natalie Kinsey-Warnock. It is a gorgeous book depicting Vermont in time gone by. (I have a soft spot for my home state!)
