Christmas Tradition...........


I try every year to read a Christmas book at Christmas time. I was a great thematic teacher, can you tell? Anyway, this is one of my ABSOLUTE favorites. I love the Herdmans and their funny antics. I love that you never really know the kid telling the story. I love that the true meaning of Christmas is there the entire time. I especially learned to love this book one year, when Mr. C. and I were early marrieds, and he had never read it, so we read it out loud to each other. I value this book, when I forget that there are real Herdmans out there, no matter what town or school you go to, and they need love too. If you need a good Christmas read, one that brings the little ones to giggle too.......Enjoy this one! This year I get the privilege of enjoying this book with Bubba, as his class is reading it together. I can't wait for story time tonight!

Thanks for the book tip! I've been thinking of a book gift post lately (not that I've been reading lately!)

Have you been seated on a jury?
