Description
Delightfully illustrated, Classic Christmas Stories offers something for everyone! Each of the fourteen stories have been carefully selected for their read-aloud appeal that draws in listeners and invites them in to ponder and discuss. The stories are eclectic, ranging from a retelling of the first Christmas to legends from other countries. Along the way, excerpts from classic children’s tales are included. Stories appeal to all ages, although a few stories, like A Christmas Carol and The Wind in the Willows are written with deeper language and ideas, so are better suited for older children. Along with the stories, readers will appreciate the short story introduction that helps set the scene for the reading. Destined to become an annual read-aloud for the Christmas season, this collection of timeless tales offers something for all ages.
