Summary: Soooo precious!
Comment: I bought this book as a way to start Christmas traditions in my home. I plan on reading it aloud every year. The story really reminds me of when I was young and everyone piled into my grandmother's house for Christmas. Plus, kids love the Shhhhhh and Whhhh noises!

Summary: Such a Warm Christmas Tale.........
Comment: ......kids are sure to love it! I'm buying "A Houseful of Christmas" for my six year old nephew as a Christmas gift. He's just learning to read and I think this book will re-affirm his confidence in his new reading skills. The story itself is just darling............Granny is getting ready, with her dog Edgar and cat Fat Cat, for a Christmas dinner at her house. When her guests arrive, they greet each other and sit down to dinner together and open gifts in the warmth of Granny's home as it snows heavily outside. When it's time to leave, Granny decides to invite everyone to stay over because the weather has gotten too bad outside. It becomes a sleepover for the whole family: Granny, aunts, uncles, cousins and lots of kids! The story really shows the Christmas holiday as one of love for family, giving, and feelings and warmth and thankfulness. The illustrations are quite nice also. I recommend this story-book for children approximately ages three to seven.

Summary: A Houseful of Love.....
Comment: "Every year the whole family came to Granny's for Christmas." It was her favorite time of year. She baked and decorated, wrapped presents, and on Christmas morning made her candied yam casserole. Soon everyone arrived, chatty Aunt Fanny, and her skinny sister, Clarisse, Uncle Bert, the fireman, with his dog, Great-aunt Ruby, who always smelled like cherry cough drops, Aunt Ivy, and her three noisy little boys, Annie, Michael and little Otto, and of course, Lambert. They ate Uncle Bert's famous smoked turkey and Granny's yams, opened their gifts, and sang carols while Granny played her accordion. But this year something special and unexpected happened, they all got snowed in, and had a big sleepover on Granny's living room floor..... Barbara Joosse has outdone herself with this joyous story of love and family, traditions, and togetherness. Her simple text pulls the reader right into the story, and lets you enjoy the holiday as one of the family, and is complemented by Betsy Lewin's colorful and expressive watercolor artwork. Together, they've authored a delightful picture book about making a lifetime of memories and remembering all the good family times. Perfect for youngsters 3-7, A Houseful Of Christmas is a lovely story your entire family can read and share together as you begin to get ready for the holiday season and make your own new memories.
