The Children's Book of Christmas Stories, Various

Many librarians have felt the need and expressed the desire for a select
collection of childrens Christmas stories in one volume. This books
claims to be just that and nothing more.

Each of the stories has already won the approval of thousands of
children, and each is fraught with the true Christmas spirit.

It is hoped that the collection will prove equally acceptable to
parents, teachers, and librarians.

(Note.--The stories marked with a star (*) will be most enjoyed by
younger children; those marked with a two stars (**) are better suited
to older children.)
