Reading an advanced copy of this I definitely am wishing for a final print real copy to add to our shelves and our Christmas story traditions. Full of beautiful Mary Engelbreit illustrations, Christmas poetry and songs to spend time and plenty of memories upon.

I had meant to share my full opinions on this earlier, but I was waiting on a final print copy to arrive and I must have missed that window. If there is only one book that you add to your Christmas stacks this year of books to read again and again every year this is one that I suggest.

The illustrations are beautiful and ring true to many Christmas traditions and the poetry, verse, songs, and scripture included are exactly the type of things that I wish for my children to ponder upon in the season of the Christ Mass. The cover and spine pages are backed with a beautiful print of a sweater and what a creative way to surround such a book in the warmth of the season with a message of truly peace on earth.
