Book Description
Elizabeth and her two children have had a difficult time since the children's father passed away during the end of summer. Elizabeth is struggling to feed and clothe her children, Jack (twelve years old) and Grace (five years old), for the winter. She sold all she could sell for food, and now it is Christmas. Elizabeth has always had a strong faith, so she prays to God and turns all her problems over to Him. She had made three items for each child for Christmas, and her husband had made something for the family's Christmas tree. She never knew the gift her husband, Jacob, made before he became ill would mean so much to his family this Christmas. Elizabeth knew God would not desert them, but she never dreamed He would bless her family the way He did or that Christmas would turn out the way it did.

Book Description
Long ago in a faraway place there lived two mothers. One, a humble peasant woman who struggled daily to provide for her children. And the other, a mother spider who also worked hard to care for her family. And although it would appear they were as different as night and day, these two mothers had more in common than would first seem. As the only holiday gift she can give her children, one cold Christmas Eve the peasant woman goes to the forest to get a tree, never noticing that someone has made a home among its branches. During the night, the mother spider spins webs decorating the tree, resulting in a Christmas that neither mother will ever forget. Based on an old Ukrainian story, Trinka Hakes Noble (The Orange Shoes) crafts an original heartwarming tale of the grace that can be found in the true spirit of Christmas.

Ms. Noble lives in northern New Jersey. Stephen Costanza attended the Philadelphia College of Art.

Book Description
Erin Rafanello Ferguson wrote this story about little Earl after becoming frustrated with the furry spiders that invaded her home when she cut down a living Christmas tree from a Christmas tree farm. She was shocked, but after a few years of having the same issue, she decided she didn't want herself or her family to be afraid of them any longer. She decided to name one of the spiders Earl, and her family giggled about him all throughout the Christmas season. A story was born and a tradition of accepting the spiders was found in Earl: The Christmas Tree Spider. This story takes you through Earl's journey from the forest to a loving home he gets to call his own. With Christmas cheer throughout, and even Santa Claus, this book brings the warmth of the season home to its readers.
