Everything Christmas by David Bordon and Tom Winters

Everything Christmas is a unique and appropriately titled journey through stories, recipes, gift ideas, songs, poems and even Christmas humor! This book could easily become your go to Christmas handbook. There is a chapter for each day of December leading up to Christmas day. The author typically starts each day with a Christmas story or poem followed by recipes and interesting Christmas facts. Each chapter then includes a mixture of craft ideas, gift ideas, carols, etc. One very interesting benefit of this book compared to other Christmas books is its focus on multicultural Christmas traditions. The author covers traditions from Argentina, Bulgaria, Denmark, Greece and many more. As a reader of many Christmas books, I have never read one that includes such diverse information. I found it really exciting and informative. One additional note, this book would be extremely handy for Christmas party games. There is a wealth of Christmas trivia that could easily be the source for hours of fun.

In summary, I really enjoyed this book and would highly recommend it. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised by the depth and diversity of Christmas information contained in this great book. Happy reading!
