Reading Events – November & December

Starting in November

christmas 2013-4Hosted by the fabulous Michelle at her Christmas Spirit Blog


These must be Christmas novels, books about Christmas lore, a book of Christmas short stories or poems, books about Christmas crafts, and for the first time…a children’s Christmas books level! Levels:



Candy Cane:  read 1 book
Mistletoe:  read 2-4 books
Christmas Tree:  read 5 or 6 books (this is the fanatic level…LOL!)
Fa La La La Films:  watch a bunch or a few Christmas movies…it’s up to you!
Visions of Sugar Plums:  read books with your children this season and share what you read


I’m going to shoot for the Mistletoe level because, well, I have good intentions but I’m also fickle. I’ve love the juxtaposition of Christmas and ghost stories, so there will probably be a lot of that. I’m also always interested in exploring other holiday season holidays. I am, I suppose, holiday greedy. I like that so many cultural and religious holidays are clustered during the darkest time of the year. I see no reason why everyone can’t celebrate everything if they so desire. Some of what I might read:


Charles Dickens' Christmas Ghost Stories Spirits of Christmas Haunting Christmas Tales Let it Snow! Season's Readings for a Super-Cool Yule!


The Twelve Days of Yule Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins Kwanzaa: A Family Affair The New Year's Eve Compendium: Toasts, Tips, Trivia and Tidbits for Bringing in the New Year
