Author Kimball Fisher’s Top 10 Christmas Books {Blog Tour}

Tour Schedule

2 – The Night Before Christmas (Clement Clarke Moore). Of course! Not even mice were stirring.

3 – How the Grinch Stole Christmas (Dr. Seuss). From a modern genius of both word and illustration.

4 – Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer (Robert L. May). For the kids. Old ones, too.

5 – The Little Match Girl (Hans Christian Anderson). Look for the volume illustrated by Rachel Isadora.

6 – Nutcracker (E.T.A. Hoffman). The story that inspired Tchaikovsky’s ballet.

7 – The Polar Express (Chris Van Allsburg). Haunting words and illustrations. Modern classic.

8 – Louisa May Alcott’s Christmas Treasury. Charming stories from the author of Little Women.

9 – The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (Barbara Robinson). A personal favorite and one of the inspirations for FINDING THE BABY JESUS. My wife and I loved this story, which although shorter than many, was always too long to read out loud in a single evening. I wrote FINDING to be read in a single sitting (even with most wiggly children).

10 – The Christmas Box (Richard Paul Evans). A fairly recent feel-good story.

 

Thank you so much Mr Fisher for sharing your favorite Christmas stories with us, and giving us one more to add to our list!
