5.0 out of 5 stars Sparked the holiday conversation, December 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Christmas Trivia (Paperback)

This book broke the ice at the office/spouse holiday party! and gave the in-laws and ex-es some good laughs at the family dinner. Lots of information loaded into a stocking-sized prize.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Book!, November 25, 2001

By	Kathy Parsons (Florence, OR United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Christmas Trivia (Paperback)

I have been collecting trivia for a lot of years, and have collected a lot of interesting facts and info about Christmas and holiday music. I didn't expect to find much that I didn't know when I ordered "Christmas Trivia", and was blown away by the range and depth of the information. It is set up in quiz form, with two hundred questions about various aspects of the holiday. The answers are all in the back. This is a great source of holiday fun and quizzes for your friends and family. Teachers will also find this to be a valuable reference to keep students entertained as well as teaching them some fun and interesting facts and legends. It's an inexpensive little book that you'll refer to again and again.
