A Book For Christmas by Selma Lagerlöf

An interesting little book, I had no idea about it or the author prior to reading it. It is a very Godly book and Christian with lots of messages about God and God’s will. Somewhat dated for today’s World I think. It does read more of a child’s book but I cant see today’s children getting through it.

The Night Before Christmas by Nikolai Gogol

Well when I started to read this book I was feeling very stupid and disappointed because I thought I bought the other ‘The Night Before Christmas’ where through the house … I was thinking I didn’t know it was set in Russia!

But when I started to read it, what an enjoyable and wonderful book. A certified classic and great addition to my Christmas line up. A fun plot with great characters, a very sweet tale.

A Child’s Christmas In Wales by Dylan Thomas

A great selection of Dylan Thomas’ writing and includes several stories. I did buy this purely for the title story ‘A Child’s Christmas In Wales’. Initially I was disappointed to find this wasn’t a festive collection but part of a general collection of stories. The title one being the only one relating to Christmas. But is a great collection too, some very enjoyable stories in this book.
