Home for Christmas: Stories for Young and Old
Stories by Helene Christaller (Brother Robber), George S. Albee (Three Young Kings), Pearl S. Buck, (Christmas Day in the Morning), Rebecca Caudill (A Certain Small Shepherd), Selma Lagerlof,(The Christmas Rose), Ruth Sawyer, (What the Kings Brought), Jack Schaefer, (The Riders of St. Nicholas) . Twenty stories.
For readers who are tired of Christmas commercialism, or who feel that Santa Claus and reindeer don’t tell the whole story, these classic gems provide a winning alternative. Selected for their insightfulness, spiritual value, and literary quality (nothing moralistic here) they project the spirit of the season in a fresh, compelling manner that will resonate with readers of all ages – from children too young to read to themselves, to parents and grandparents who enjoy reading stories aloud.
Home for Christmas includes time-tested favorites by some of the world’s most beloved children’s authors – Pearl Buck, Selma Lagerlöf, Henry van Dyke, Madeleine L’Engle, Elizabeth Goudge, Rebecca Caudill, and Ruth Sawyer – as well as little-known European stories appearing in English for the first time.
