Remembering the Simple Things That Christmas Brings

Do you remember how special the Christmas season was when you were a child—how exciting it was, how full of wonder? Author Susan Brougher paints vivid pictures from her childhood in rural upstate New York, where winter brought many heart-warming adventures. Follow Susan on her trek through deep drifts of snow to find the perfect Christmas tree in the woods, and watch with her as the clever family cat goes on a holiday spree. Thrill with Susan as the first snowflakes fall, and feel her anticipation as she waits for Santa Claus. And right along with Susan, you will share the wonder of Baby Jesus in the manger, seeing that miracle again through innocent eyes. These five beautifully illustrated children’s poems will bring back your cherished memories as you read them aloud to your children, creating memories of your own for many years to come.
