3.0 out of 5 stars Moving Towards Christmas, January 9, 2007

This review is from: The 25 Days of Christmas: Family Readings and Scriptures for the Advent Season (Hardcover)

Every advent season our family reads through some kind of daily readings book. We were not overly impressed with this book. It was "OK" according to our 10 year old. Other Christmases we've read CS Lewis and Arnold Ytreeide so the bar is set pretty high. We didn't always agree with what the daily readings were saying but it lead to some good discussions amongst the four of us. In short, this collection of readings is OK, not great. There are other books I'd recommend before this one.

This small book is packed with precious stories that your family will love. There is a scripture verse with each day, questions to ponder and other fun surprises. This book really puts Christmas into the right perspective.
