"Few activities thrill the mind and the spirit as much as reading aloud a good book with kids on a winter evening. Tim Larsen has assembled here just this kind of delight, perfect for the Advent season. Whether you are homeschooling or just want a good Advent read to enjoy with family or friends or even alone (after all, you are never truly alone when in the company of a good book), the stories in this book will remind you repeatedly of the beauty of literature, love, family, the ordinary life, and most of all, God."
