We are off to the library today to grab what’s left of their Christmas themed books to go with all our upcoming Christmas themed crafts and activities. These 24 books are memorable ones from years past . If you click on the book title below it will take you to the original review post . One of my favorite ways of getting my kids into the spirit of Christmas is our holiday book tradition.

Thank you for sharing this list! I just requested several of these from our library =)
Oh this brings back some memories! Isn’t reading to our kids (or ANY kids) one of the most amazing and memorable things you can do? I remember “Merry Christmas, Mouse” especially, and found your site originally from your great post on using old toothbrushes for art!

I have a new crop of about 20 kids every holiday season and I LOVE to read a book called “The Christmas Orange” by Don Gilmor and Marie-Louise Gay. It’s about a spoiled young boy who doesn’t get everything he wants for Christmas so he sues Santa. It’s a good way to teach kids to be thankful for anything and everything they get for the holidays.
I just reserved these all at the library! Thanks Allie!
Zina – I am so glad! My kids and I had a huge Christmas book festival this weekend and have another 24 ready for a post!
