Sounds wonderful Seabound!

Nate, are you still working on yours?

Me: I'm here at school, but I'm not teaching today. Maybe I can sneak in a title today. -- If I do, I'll add the title later to this post to let anyone who might be interested, so that titles won't be duplicated -- UNLESS it's different artwork, of course; or a different interpretation (assembly) of a title.

i'm sure many of you have already thought of this but don't forget to tag your books with "christmas" to make them easy to find through a tag search !

Harry has just posted a newly-proofed version of The Pickwick Papers, a good - and very humorous - Christmas novel.

When it comes to Charles Dickens, Harry's versions are very beautifully done.

Probably fairer to call it "a novel with a wonderful description of Christmas in it" as opposed to "a Christmas novel". It is a fabulous book, though.

Or you could do a Prince and call it "The novel with a wonderful description of Christmas in it, formerly known as, a Christmas novel"

We've added several Christmas titles this week and I took the liberty of going through the library and tagging all of the books (except bibles) that were missing a Christmas tag. It's very possible I've missed some so please have a look and see. Also, if you post a new book, please don't forget to add the tag. I don't think we use that tool as effectively as we could.

Took me a while, but I finally managed to finish my self-assigned book in three formats (excuse my slowness; I've been quite busy with work):

On Christmas Day in the Morning
