Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A Hometown Christmas is filled with the elements that create a joyful holiday celebration: heartwarming stories, holiday poems, traditional carols, and delicious recipes. Each of the seven chapters is introduced by a traditional carol, complete with music for sing-alongs. Familiar tunes like "The Little Drummer Boy," "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," and "O Come, All Ye Faithful" evoke cherished memories of holiday preparations and festivities. Fred L. Holmes recalls the excitement of "An Orange in One's Stocking," while Bing Crosby reminisces about coasting downhill on his new sled in "My Christmas Sled." Bill Vaughn shares the meaning of Christmas with his daughter in "Tell Me a Story of Christmas." The book also features beloved holiday poems, including Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day," Eleanor Farjeon's "The Children's Carol," and Ogden Nash's "Nutcracker Suite Narrative." Additionally, it offers a variety of holiday recipes, from pumpkin-raisin bread to gingersnaps and hot mulled cider. Complemented by exquisite photographs and paintings that capture the sights and symbols of the Christmas season, this collection will warm hearts year after year, inviting readers to a place called home, where memories are cherished, traditions are honored, and love is always present during the holidays.
