It seems that lots of Christmas traditions were born in the UK between 15th and 19th century. Charles Dickens cleverly used the background of the Victorian houses and societies and produced a splendid Christmas story.

I bought this even though it was quite expensive and I have not regretted it. It's actually 3 pages (they should have depicted it properly on the amazon page) and it folds out. I bought it because I loved the painting and I had a peek into a door and that's lovely too. Can't wait for December to start.

It really is a classic that I think will survive a long time. It's not challanging and very sweet and on the whole very enjoyable.
I read it in one evening when I when I had the flu in bed and it kept me entertained so much that I finished it! Every girl should read it and even teenage girls like me!

I love the Eric Carle diaries, they are bright, fun and very suitable for 'grown-ups'. The pictures are fun and there is lots of room to write every appointment for each day.
I had the 2008 diary and I think this years is even better.

I just finished reading this warm and uplifting book. It's not just about space, it's about Dads (dadliness) and kids. An edge of your seat unfolding of story and a terrific punchline. Funny too. Every Dad should read it. And kids.
