This is a classic book that has tons of great holiday ideas in it. I purchased it for one specific pattern, but my wife has enjoyed this book since she was a child. As always, Amazon Prime shipping was right on time. The book was a good deal at around $4.00. Unfortunately, the book was listed as very good condition, but was at best only in good condition. The book is perfectly serviceable, but should not have been given the best condition rating. Caveat emptor, I guess.

This is an unusual book, every page full of instructions for beautiful crafts or mouth-watering holiday recipes, as well as many pages containing gorgeous photos of either the finished craft projects or the ready-to-eat food that looks as good as it tastes. The recipes are mostly for the average cook, but some are easier and some a bit more difficult to prepare.

While I've had my copy of this book approximately two decades, I find it as interesting to read now as I did then; a timeless and wonderful book to peruse during the holidays. Something for everyone can be found within these pages. Although this book does contain many different nativity scene projects done with different techniques, and requiring different skill levels to complete, there are an abundance of other craft projects so that nobody need feel left out.

Amazon.com no longer sells this new, however many third party sellers have copies available in any condition, including new, most of them at very reasonable prices. If you love crafts and cooking, this is the book for you.

Thank you for a good product that is not flawed or missing pages and is in very very good condition for such an old book. I also appreciate the quick delivery by mail. Thanks for keeping my trusts with sellers like you that do not steal my limited spending money. Only on a pension, I thank you for your very reasonable pricing. God bless. herlinda
