Charles Dickens (1812 - 1870) was one of England's greatest writers and A Christmas Carol shows us why. This holiday classic succinctly yet beautifully depicts the powerful transformation of a lonely and bitter old man into one who - in the true spirit of Christmas - embraces a renewed sense of joy in life and all it has to offer. Dickens writes about the London he lived in, bringing to life the miserable living conditions of the poor and highlighting the injustices of the time. But the core of the story transcends its setting and resonates deep within the human soul. Truly a timeless story, loved by people of all ages.

The song "The 12 Days of Christmas" is a mainstay of the holiday season, but the practice of celebrating Christmas as a twelve-day festival fell out of fashion long ago in most cultures. In Celebrating the 12 Days of Christmas, author Chris Marchand explores the history behind the season and individual feast days from December 25 to January 6, and then offers suggestions for how you can celebrate it with your family, church, or community. Along with this, he provides answers to many of the nagging questions surrounding the holiday, such as the history behind the twelve-days song, why December 25 was chosen as the date, and what to do about its supposedly pagan origins. The challenge before us is to first help people see Christmas as a holiday that begins, rather than ends, on December 25, and then to together figure out how to reinvent Christmas in the present by learning how it was celebrated in the past.
Описание: These 25 heartwarming stories are set during the holidays in the years between 1906 and today, amid historic events when people came together and found opportunities to exchange the true gifts of Christmas: kindness, encouragement, forgiveness, peace, hope, belonging, and more. The main character of each story is a boy or girl, man or woman whose heart opens to give or receive love, bringing personal transformation and causing them to always look back and say, "That was the best Christmas " Each story is penned by A.R. Cecil with a gentle twinkle in her eye, giving the reader delightful twists of plot, and revealing Mrs. Cecil's warm understanding of human relationships-with each other and with the Creator who sent his Son that first Christmas Day. A story collection that will rekindle the reader's own memories, giving perspective to the present and hope for the future. Perfect to read during Advent or any time of the year.

Описание: Pedro, our little ghost, has a good reason to stick around the tiny mountain community of El Rito in northern New Mexico. And Rebecca Garcia is determined to find out what it is. Many stories had been handed down about how ghosts could be lost in the world of the living and all the other young girls were afraid. But not Rebecca, because she had been told that little Pedro had always been a nice boy and liked by everyone. It doesn't take her long to unravel the mystery, and in the end she learns something that she-and the entire community-will never forget. Bilingual Edition in Spanish and English. * * * * * When Joseph J. Ruiz was only eight years old, his father died and he and his older brother Ralph were sent to a boarding school in El Rito, New Mexico where they worked for their room, board and schooling. Their sister Mary Lou went to live with an aunt in Albuquerque while their mother worked to pay medical bills and to save enough to eventually reunite the family. In the early days in El Rito Joe used to walk by the village cemetery and wonder about those buried there. These experiences inspired this fictional story about a friendly little ghost. Joseph is also the author of three other bilingual books for children, "Little Juan Learns A Lesson," "Manuel and the Magic Ring," and "Angel on Daniel's Shoulder," all from Sunstone Press.
