Christmas Books for Children: II

I know it's the wrong season. But I posted a blog back in November asking for recommendations of good Christmas books for children. Then my book club shared favorites in our December meeting. So, though it's the wrong season, I finally got around to compiling the list! Here it is!

Emily M:
- The Gingerbread Pirates by Kristin Kadstrup
- The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey

Lisa H (me!)
- Angela and the Baby Jesus by Frank McCourt (but has some Irish swearing!)
- a chapter from The Twelve Little Cakes by Dominika Dery (more for adults)

Laura B:
- Christmas Day in the Morning by Pearl S. Buck
- I Believe in Santa Claus

Alice S:
- Giving Chest
- The Legend of the Candy Cane

Mary F:
- Stories Behind the Best-Loved Songs of Christmas by Ace Collins

Brandie Black: had a bzillion! (: Here is what I caught:
- Penny's Christmas Jar Miracle
- If You're Missing Baby Jesus
- A Christmas Dress for Ellen
- He Took My Lickin for Me
- The Crippled Lamb
- Why Christmas Trees Aren't Perfect
- God Bless Your Way
- A Christmas Bell for Anya
- The Miracle of the Wooden Shoes
not actually Christmas but warms the heart
- What Love Is (Carol Lynn Pearson)
