Book Description
Twenty-five celebrated Latino writers delight and move us with their recollections of Christmas in this splendid holiday extravaganza. From Julia Alvarez's tale of how Santicló delivered a beloved uncle from political oppression to Junot Díaz's story of his own uneasy assimilation on his first Christmas in America, to Sandra Cisneros's poignant memories of her late father's holiday dinners, Las Christmas gives us true stories from writers of many traditions--memories of Christmas and Hanukkah that vividly capture the pride and pain, joy and heartbreak, that so often accompany the holidays in the Americas. Richly illustrated and embellished with songs and poems, along with recipes for an unforgettable Christmas dinner--from traditional sweet tamales to Puerto Rican asopao (stew) and coquito (coconut eggnog)--this is an enduring treasury of Latino writing to read again and again. A heartwarming holiday gift.

Including contributions from customers and employees of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM and Celebrations.com, the beautifully illustrated book is filled with tender family moments, laugh-out-loud stories, and ruminations on the meaning of the season. Celebrating Christmas will strike a universal chord among those who cherish the specialness of the holiday. Entries include: * I love parties, but even more, I love getting ready for parties. To deck my house for Christmas means that soon it will be filled with family and friends. It means that soon it will be filled with love." --Candace G. * The best yuletide decoration is being wreathed in smiles. --Anonymous * "Over the years, my children have questioned whether Santa Claus is real, and each time they doubt, I remind them, 'If you don't believe, you don't receive.'" --Judy M.

This intimate account sets the tone for the book and creates a personal bond between McCann and his readers.

Book Description
Often our Advent preparations have an inward focus as we prepare for the significance of God breaking into our world through the birth of the Christ child. But in a closer examination of the Advent story, we quickly learn that the focus of the coming of the newborn king is outward. In this book and Advent study, Dr. Ed Robb explores the warmth of welcome at Christmas following interactions with Mary and Joseph, the shepherds, and the magi. Just as Jesus made room in God’s kingdom for a host of people that society wanted to leave on the margins, beginning with the appearance of the shepherds, we too should be asking ourselves who we can make room for this Christmas. Perhaps it is to the people in your community, or the newly immigrated family in town that doesn’t speak your language. Or maybe it’s the next-door neighbor who just settled in from yet another corporate move? The story of Christ’s birth encourages us to widen our borders and increase our sense of community—and make room for others. Additional components for a four-week study include a comprehensive Leader Guide.

Book Description
A charming Christmas picture book that teaches the joy of giving and points to Jesus, the greatest gift of all Badger tells the animals that he has a very special way to celebrate Christmas Day this year. He asks them to pack up the finest foods they can find and some special gifts—they are going to journey to another area of the forest for a celebration. But when they arrive, the animals are confused why they can’t begin tearing open gifts and enjoying all the foods . . . until Badger introduces them to the neighboring animals who live there and they experience the joy of sharing with those who don’t have as much. A Christmas Journey for Jesus is the follow-up to the heartwarming Christmas storybooks, A Birthday Party for Jesus, Everyone Is Invited to Christmas, and A Christmas Pageant for Jesus. Beautifully illustrated by Lee Holland, this picture book will offer young children a fun, relatable story of forest friends who discover that it is truly more blessed to give than to receive.
