This is a Treasury of true Classic Christmas stories. Almost a third of the book is A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Other popular stories include The Grift of the Magi, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, The Fir Tree, and Twas the Night Before Christmas. Carols are also included to be played on a piano. I was familiar with everything except a story called Bits by Helen G. Ricks who is an African American writer. This is the kind of book to be pulled out and read from every years. I liked getting the brief notes about the authors as well. About the only thing that could have made this book better would be adding some illustrations.

Drawn by its beautiful festive cover, I was even more curious when I saw that this Christmas book contained more than the usual suspects. Of course, you'll find A Christmas Carol and The Nutcracker, but more interestingly, there are tales I had never read before, but also music scores of timeless Christmas carols, and that makes this book stand out in the crowd of Christmas anthologies.

However, I would much prefer to leaf through it as a paper format, because as a digital book, it wasn't super comfortable to read.

A Classic Christmas Treasury is a delightful book full of some of the best authors to ever write a Christmas story. Many I hadn't read in many a year and they took me back. I love the short stories as I can read them a bit at a time and savor them.

I am trying to make them last into the Christmas season - or I will just re-read my favorites. I highly recommend this wonderful book.
