The Children's Book Of
Christmas Stories
by Asa Don Dickinson (Author), Ada M. Skinner
(Author)
From some of the windows bright
lights were already beginning to stream until it
was almost as bright as day. But the little child
seemed to have no home, and wandered about
listlessly from street to street. No one took any
notice of him except perhaps Jack Frost, who bit
his bare toes and made the ends of his fingers
tingle. The north wind, too, seemed to notice the
child, for it blew against him and pierced his
ragged garments through and through, causing him to
shiver with cold. Home after home he passed,
looking with longing eyes through the windows, in
upon the glad, happy children, most of whom were
helping to trim the Christmas trees for the coming
morrow.

A Treasury of
Old-Fashioned Christmas Stories
by Michele Slung (Adapter)
A rich
anthology, stylishly packaged and brimming over
with heartwarming drama, seasonal merriment, and
unexpected thrills. The author, who has been
creating original and highly praised collections
for thirty years, believes in bringing new energy
to the term “old-fashioned.” That is to say, she is
a reader’s reader who loves to uncover those
stories written in another time that surprise us by
their vibrancy, by the way they move us or make us
laugh, while also reminding us of our most deeply
held values and our ideals.
