Stories for Young and Old
SUMMARY: They are some of the warmest childhood memories, those unhurried evenings around the fireplace, Christmas tree, or dinner table, when there was time for a story . . . Now, with this collection, you can keep the story-telling tradition alive in your family, and pass it on to your children or grandchildren.
Home for Christmas includes twenty time-honored favorites. Several are by world-famous children's authors; others are little-known European tales not available in English anywhere else. Selected for their literary quality and their spiritual integrity, they will resonate with readers of all ages, year after year.
REVIEW: I'm sorry to say I did not like this book. Most of the stories were sad and depressing. There was one story where the main character was very selfish and thoughtless. When he had a change of heart, the story ended abruptly. Some stories just drug on and on. Since they were written by different authors and were set in completely different time periods and places, I had a hard time switching thought processes to follow along. I hope others will find this book more appealing than I did.
