Christmas books

i'm slightly obsessed with christmas books. 
there is something magical about getting them out again every year.
even as an adult, seeing certain books again brings back a flood of memories.
one of my favorite christmas books as a kid was the night before christmas.
not just the story itself, but this old big book. it even has my name in it.
when i found it this year in my mom's bookcase , i had to take it home.
there's something about reading an old book. the tattered cardboard spine, a torn page, the old vintage pictures. 
last night, we read christmas stories under the colorful christmas tree lights. i want my kids to share the same love for old books.













another BEAUTIFUL book that i just about melted over when i saw it, is this one: 

it's pure magic.



each page has gorgeous pictures.
i love it!



and the story is way sweet too.



i loved this book so much that i couldn't just get one.
no.
sooooo....don't be surprised if you get this as a gift from us this year!

what are you favorite christmas books?
please share!
