Cobweb Christmas: The Tradition of Tinsel: A Christmas Holiday Book for Kids

My five books arrived neatly packaged and in a timely manner and it is such a cute story to share with young children and create your own Christmas tradition.

This book is one of my favorite holiday stories! I am a first grade teacher and have shared this story with my students for the past several years and will continue to share it for years to come. You will not be disappointed with your purchase!

This is a revised edition of a book previously published in 1982. I personally prefer the earlier version as this version leaves out some beautiful descriptions that add to the story. In addition, Christkindel is changed to Kris Kringle. I own both versions, but read the earlier version to my fourth grade classes every year at Christmas. I'm hoping they will revise it back to the original so I can buy it in hardcopy as my paperback version is starting to show much wear and tear after 17 years. Not a bad story if you haven't read the original version though.

I think a younger kid (4-8) would like to read this book. This book takes place at Christmas time in Germany. It is about an old lady named Tante (Auntie). Every year she decorates a Christmas tree for animals and they come enjoy the surprises she has for them. Tante doesn't like spiders so every year she wipes them away. The spiders want to see the tree, but they never get to. Read this book to see what happens to those little spiders this year.

Cobweb Christmas is a delightful book that brings the magic of Christmas to children. Our family reads this book every Christmas Eve and is delighted year after year.
