Petra chose All Hearts Come Home for Christmas by Sarah M. Eden as her favourite Christmas book. Here is her reason:
"The book represents what Christmas is for me: Spending precious time with the people you love. So each Christmas I go home to my parents and spend the day with them and my sister."
Petra has used the following items on her card:

My favorite Christmas book is a Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. I have to say, now I try watch every movie made around this story. Also, if you've never read "The Red Wings of Christmas" you should try it. It's beautifully illustrated and a wonderful children's book.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas Book(s) would have to be The Nutcracker and The Night Before Christmas, because they are both classic Christmas books that I read as a child ..
ReplyDeleteI have a copy of 'Twas the night before Christmas ' Even reading it now reminds me of the magic of Christmas Eve and leaving food for Father Christmas and Rudolph .Waking up on Christmas day and feeling a lumpy stocking at the foot of the bed and knowing that HE has been.Now some children have a Christmas Eve box ,it is a book that should be included .
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Twas the Night Before Christmas. I loved reading this book to my children and watching them as they tried to keep their eyes open. Usually they were sound asleep before we could finish the book. Next morning we read the book again and opened up our gifts.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays to all, hugs, Lori m
The penguins are adorable! What an awesome card by Petra - so many fun details to look at - I love how she finished the inside! My favourite has always been 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. I remember this book being read to me as a child so I have fond memories of my childhood Christmases.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is How the Grinch Stole Christmas. It show how even the hardest heart can be warmed by the Christmas spirit. Another favorite is A Christmas Carol for the same reason.
ReplyDeleteSince we have 3-year old twin grandchildren my favorite right now is Twas the Night Before Christmas. Love to read this story to the twins and get them excited about the holiday season. They love rhyming stories, in fact Arthur memorizes them and repeats them back.
ReplyDeleteThe Cat Who Came for Christmas is my favorite. I always enjoy a good cat story!
ReplyDeleteA Charlie Brown Christmas! I love that book and read it over and over as a child; it's just not Christmas without that story!
