Books to Celebrate the Season One of my passions is reading Christmas and winter stories. I don't limit my reading material to books that are just for adults. I am a great admirer of children's books as well. Many of these books have the most magical and beautiful illustrations. Looking through such wonderful books brings you right back to your own childhood.

Wish list Book lovers always have a few titles on their wish list. As an example have a look at my wish list. It's easy to set one up for yourself with amazon.com and pass it on to your family and friends. It's a great idea to receive the gifts you want for Christmas, your birthday or just because. Note that Christmas books are much cheaper after the season.
The snowman appears everywhere on practically everything-from knickknacks to greeting cards to seasonal sweaters you plan to return. Whenever we see big snowballs our first impulse is to deck them out with a top hat. Humorist Bob Eckstein has long been fascinated by this ubiquitous symbol of wintertime fun-and finally, for the first time, one of the world's most popular icons gets his due. A thoroughly entertaining exploration. [ Bob Eckstein's blog ] [ Order the book ] |
