For readers who are tired of Christmas commercialism, or who feel that Father Christmas doesn't tell the whole story, these classic gems provide an alternative. Selected for their insightfulness, spiritual value, and literary quality (nothing moralistic here) they project the spirit of the season in a fresh, compelling manner that will resonate with readers of all ages - from children too young to read to themselves, to parents and grandparents who enjoy reading stories aloud. "Home for Christmas" includes time-tested favorites by some the world's most beloved children's authors - Selma Lagerlof, Ruth Sawyer, Elizabeth Goudge and Pearl Buck - as well as little-known European stories appearing in English for the first time.
I was given this book last year and whole heartedly agree with the description given above.
Switch off the television for an hour each day this advent and read these stories aloud instead. To share these gems with your family and friends, will make this time of preparation very special.
