Book Overview

For five decades, Alan Maitland was celebrated for his resonant mellow CBC radio voice - and perhaps, most famously, for the stories he read over the airwaves in his alter ego of Fireside Al. For 19 years, Fireside Al read his favourite stories to a devoted radio audience and even though Alan Maitland died in 1999, his voice has been captured for posterity in a highly valued set of sound recordings of these magnificent performances.

Especially recommended for children's library holiday shelves

Fireside Al's Treasury of Christmas Stories presents classic Christmas tales in the form of a picturebook with an accompanying audio CD of original readings the entire family can enjoy. Simple, colorful illustrations intersperse chestnuts of Christmas lore such as O. Henry's "The Gift of the Magi", the great Christmas editorial "Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus", Margaret Atwood's "The Santa Claus Trap", Robert Louis Stevenson's "Christmas at Sea", and much more. Especially recommended for children's library holiday shelves, and the perfect giftbook to commemorate the upcoming holiday season.
