A collection of Holiday Memories by various authors. Heartwarming recollections of Holidays past by children all grown up now and reflecting on not just the memories but the years in between. I discovered a world of memories, both warm and frightening, to enjoy each evening as we approach the end of the year, each in our own way. I was reminded of all the things that go on between siblings, all the lengths to which parents and relatives go this time of year to create the magic, and how as children we would learn about the various cultures and settings in which the holidays are observed around the world. We would read about Christmas in warmer places and try to picture it. Likewise we could only imagine the winters in the Midwest. It is all here in this fine collection of stories and poems. The Holidays of the past brought to life and shared in love. This little book was a gift to me this season and it may be one of the best gifts I've ever received.
