Favorite Children's Books: Christmas Stories

It's Christmas Time! And with that, brings out our Christmas decorations and lots of Christmas books! No Christmas season would be complete without nearly daily readings of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and a new favorite, The Elf on the Shelf. These are wonderful Christmas stories, adored by most. For this post, I would like to share with you some of our favorite Christmas books that are not as popular. Over the years, we have collected many books including Rudolph and Jingle Bells stories and many others, but the ones listed here are my very favorite!



 I love the Strega Nona story! So really what can be better than a Christmas story with the lovable Strega Nona and Big Anthony? This story really embodies the spirit of giving during the Christmas season and is a wonderful read!

 

This story is actually a little sad for a typical Christmas story. However, I do enjoy it for many reasons. One reason is that I actually got this book from a children's hospital after I had outpatient surgery as a kid. For me, that automatically makes it special. But when my daughter saw it, she says, "Oh! One of my favorite stories!" that just makes it a favorite! We love any story with animals, so that's just an added bonus!



This is a very simple but very cute story. When the little mouses home gets destroyed she has to find a new home and ultimately finds the perfect place! It's so sweet!

  

This is a great Christmas story with beautiful illustrations. It's completely different from any other Christmas book we have and one that the children just love!

What are your favorite Christmas books?
