A panorama of Christmas traditions around the world, from France to Iran, Egypt to Mexico Christmas traditions differ from culture to culture, location to location, and family to family. In 24 Christmas Stories: Faith and Traditions from Around the World, award-winning author Judith Bouilloc explores present-day Christmas traditions, as well as the holiday's history in many regions, brought to life by various artists. In Germany, Anna opens the first window of her advent calendar and wonders if Christmas will be here soon. In Lorraine, France, Rita can't wait for Saint Nicholas Day (he'll bring little presents for the good girls and boys, and potatoes for the naughty ones). In Iran, Melchior trudges through the fog and is joined on his travels by two other men who are following the brightest star in the sky, guiding them to an unknown but special destination. In Italy, St. Francis plans the very first living Nativity, determined to share with his local friends the story of Jesus in the manger. His Nativity scene goes on to inspire generations to come. In Japan, Shusaku makes paper cranes in preparation of Christmas and in honor of Sadako. In the United States, Trinity revises her mother's to-do list to put the highest priority items at the top as they get ready to welcome friends and family. Whether you choose to read one story a night leading up to Christmas, or multiple in one sitting, you're sure to learn something new about Christmas and the many different ways it's celebrated around the world every December.

New York Times bestselling author SQuire Rushnell and his wife Louise DuArt share 21 brand-new and 9 classic true-life stories of extraordinary “Godwinks” at Christmastime, proving that what some thought was “coincidence” wasn't coincidence at all, but a supernatural “hotline” from God. Think back to when you were a kid and someone you loved gave you a little wink across the dining room table, like Mom or Dad or Grandma. You didn't say, “What do you mean by that?” You knew. It meant: “Hey kid, I'm proud of you.” That's what a Godwink is: a message of reassurance from above, directly to you, out of seven billion people on the planet, saying “Hey kid...I have you on my mind right now. I love you. You’re never alone.” A Godwink can be an unexpected connection to someone you love, a mysterious pathway to a life-changing opportunity, unanticipated income out of the blue, or an answered prayer that makes you say “wow”! Godwinks let you know that God is always extending you a tangible connection to Him, like a firm handrail on dark, wobbly stairs. Now, just in time for the holiday season, comes Godwinks Christmas Stories, a collection of astonishing true-life stories centered around Christmas that demonstrate how God has shown Himself in the lives of others. He’ll do the same for you. Husband and wife authors SQuire Rushnell and Louise DuArt remind you that Godwinks are like wondrous gifts left on your doorstep. Their aim with this book is to help you open the door and open your gifts of hope and encouragement.

Short stories by Olympia Vernon, Robert Olen Butler, Mary Ward Brown, and more that look at Christmas from unexpected angles. While Christmas stories are traditionally sweet, not every holiday memory generates a feeling of ease, merriment, and plenty. In the capable hands of twelve of the best writers in the South, Christmas is a season not only of traditions and family, but of sacrifice and endurance, loneliness and faith. The stories in this anthology embrace the rich and varied aspects of the Christmas season, upholding family, forgiveness, and love as virtues of redemption. A divorcee finds strength in an artifact from her childhood in “Queen Elizabeth Running Free,” while an elderly couple struggles to find comfort in “The Cold Giraffe.” From Elizabeth Spencer’s “Carrollton Christmas in Olden Days,” recalling warm family memories of a particularly cold holiday, to Mark Richard’s “The Birds for Christmas,” wherein a bleak and difficult Christmas is endured by two boys in an orphanage, the stories in this anthology exemplify the best that Southern fiction has to offer.
