A Christmas I Remember by Deirdre Tolhurst is a wonderful rhyming story that reminds readers of the magic of Christmas. Excitement fills the air as the anticipation of Santa's arrival is on the minds of all girls and boys. "Mary wanted a jewelry box, a pretty one in blue. Terry wanted bicycle, a three-speed racer you know. I just wanted a folk guitar, wrapped in a fancy bow." But, this Christmas Eve the snow is mounting and the little girl is fearful that Santa won't be able to find her house. Her father diligently works to clear a path, but will it be enough? The illustrations are enchanting and visually enhance the feeling of elation found throughout the story. A Christmas I Remember will delight young readers while also sharing the true meaning of Christmas. It's a special story that parents should share with their children each holiday. I recommend picking up a copy. A Christmas I Remember is available at www.amazon.com. |
