The Spirit of Christmas
The Spirit of Christmas | Nancy Tillman
14 posts | 9 read
Bells jingle, sleds dash through the snow, trees are topped with sparkling stars, and children everywhere dream of candy canes and presents. But the best gift of all-the most magical gift of the season-is when we spend Christmas with those we love. Once again, this New York Times-bestselling author and artist has created a special, beautiful book that families will want to share year after year. (And readers will want to look for the Spirit of Christmas image that Nancy Tillman has hidden on every page!)

My #HolidayMovie of Christmas Day itself was The Spirit of Christmas about an inn haunted by a ghost of a Prohibition rum runner who becomes corporeal for 12 days each year. It was actually a really good film.

Watching The Spirit of Christmas on Amazon Prime. I saw it last year, or maybe the year before. Anyway, I liked it then and I‘m hoping my husband will like it now. #WinterGames2020 #MerryReaders #HolidayMoviec

What a sweet, amazing and beautiful book! I read the digital edition, but may very well purchase the print copy. Gorgeous illustrations and touching story.

This was cute. Adorable poems in the beginning, great narrator but I wasn't expecting the choir singing at the end. Worth giving a listen 🎄

Today I received this beautiful card and touching letter from @NCNY Thank you so much for your letter. You had me in tears reading about your little dog Millie and your father. I am so glad that the gifts I sent you for #secretsantagoespostal were so meaningful to you. I hope you had a Merry Christmas. Here's to a better year in 2018!

NCNY 🙂 Have a happy new year! 🎉 7y

Hello, friends! I had an idea today, inspired by the beautiful thoughtfulness of @JenP . I have a friend who's in the process of fostering to adopt two little girls. They've been visiting the library often, but they don't own any children's books at all. I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in joining me in giving them books for Christmas to build their family collection. If people are interested, I will figure out how to make it work 👇🏼

obviateit and let you know how to get involved. ❤️❤️❤️ 7y
MiyakoBunny Awesome idea 💡 I look forward to it 😺 7y

Long week, both at work and home. Went to get food for a stew tomorrow (❄️❄️ predicted, our first if it comes!) This picture from the grocery store parking lot gave me pause and filled my heart. I missed the town tree lighting this year so had not seen the tree all dressed up. Have not had time to get our tree up yet, so this felt Christmasy.🎄🎄Love the purple/blue tones.

Texreader I️ ❤️ this photo too! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It‘s gorgeous and the church in the background!!! ❤️🎄 ⛪ 7y
DebbieGrillo It's a Nor'easter. You get it first, then us. 6-8" by the time it gets here tomorrow night. Stew sounds like a good plan. 7y

kspenmoll @Texreader @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @DebbieGrillo @Cathythoughts @Mdargusch It is gorgeous, evoking peace within me.❤️sending that feeling to you.New Englandy picture. 💒🎄Rebellious Puritans such as Thomas Hooker fled to CT in 1600‘s and established a more free style of Church, inevitably inspiring the Fundamental Orders of CT, first representative form of gov/Constitution in colonies.😀 7y
kspenmoll The church pictured is Congregational, one of three churches built since 1683. This one in 1830. In 1965 parts were restored after a fire. Martin Luther King attended services here as well as others,during his two summers he came to work in nearby tobacco fields. He was amazed he could worship with whites. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.nytimes.com/2016/06/12/nyregion/martin-luthe... (edited) 7y
kspenmoll Hope did not bore you with my love of history😀❤️. @Texreader @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Mdargusch @Cathythoughts @DebbieGrillo (edited) 7y
Mdargusch It‘s very interesting to me! 7y
ValerieAndBooks Whenever we stay in Hartford (remember my daughter goes to school there), off in the near distance, from our hotel, we see a New England church that looks like this one. Maybe it is the same one! 7y
kspenmoll @ValerieAndBooks There are many churches like this in the area- what town/hotel do you stay in? If you ever have time & want to, (but I know you are with family & your daughter probably just wants to get home!),get in touch. Email: kspenmoll@gmail.com 7y
ValerieAndBooks I‘ve added you to my address book 😊. Would love to meet up when I have the chance! We usually stay at the Hilton by the XL Center (hubby gets points for staying at Hilton‘s). 7y

This is not strictly book-related but after all the sh** that happened in the world yesterday (including a presumed terrorist attack on a Christmas market here in Germany), I feel the need to post something beautiful. So here is the prettiest book tree I've ever seen. This picture always has a calming effect on me. Hope you're all safe! ❤❤

scripturient @Lizpixie Thank you! 😘 Berlin is actually some hundred kilometers away from where I live (I'm close to the Dutch border.) Still, it's a weird feeling when you realize this could have been anywhere. It's probably because we have a kid now that these things make me think about how vulnerable we actually are. 😕 8y
Texreader So so sad for the attack in your country! We are all with you at this sad time!! 8y
