If you're still looking for a stocking stuffer or two (or five), you can't go wrong with the new Penguin Christmas Classics series, featuring
A Merry Christmas & Other Christmas Stories by Louisa May Alcott
The Nutcracker by E.T.A. Hoffmann
The Night Before Christmas by Nikolai Gogol
A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens
Christmas At Thompson Hall & Other Christmas Stories by Anthony Trollope
They have beautiful foil-stamped covers ...
and lovely inner artwork as well, all in petite books that will fit in a purse or jacket pocket. I read the Alcott stories last week and am rereading A Christmas Carol tonight. I'll read the others during the coming week and I know that they will set the perfect mood for a lovely Christmas Day.
Seasons readings,

Ooh, I like the look of the Anthony Trollope book. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this (or any Trollope!) yet but this one is so small that hopefully it leads me to also pick up the ones that are sitting here on my TBR!
