1. Song: Little Drummer Boy
2. Movie: The Bishop's Wife
3. TV Special: Jim Henson's The Christmas Toy

I don't really have any holiday books, aside from the tagged. I might also do a re-read of Christopher Moore's The Stupidest Angel this year :D

dabbe 1. Bob Segar's version of this makes me cry. 2. The original or the Whitney one or both? 3. I've never seen this; I'll have to check it out! Thanks for sharing! 🩵❄️🩵 12mo
TieDyeDude @dabbe 2. The original. I never saw The Preacher's Wife and didn't realize it was a remake. I might have to give it a watch this year, especially if it has Gregory Hines!
3. I think it is on Amazon Prime Video, but otherwise might be hard to find.

TheBookgeekFrau I just read The Stupidest Angel this year - lol'ed a lot; but my favorite is the explanation of the oil lasting eight days 🤣 12mo
TieDyeDude @AnnR @EclecticBookLover I saved my VHS player for the longest time just to watch The Christmas Toy. It didn't make the last move, so I'm glad it is on Prime, though I think I still have the cassette. 12mo
EclecticBookLover I bought a DVD copy several years ago. It's such a forgotten gem. 12mo

As we move along out of 2020 might we remember that we are part of one giant race- the human race and treat others as we would like to be treated. This is a reminder that my Norman Rockwell Christmas Book has given me for the day.

I don‘t ever choose to judge people by their looks, but by their words and deeds. I tend to make friends automatically this is good until i get bit by someone who isn‘t trustworthy. ❤️

What do you learn from books??

aa_guer2021 That it‘s not ok to live in a closet, that just because you have the fanciest house and the nicest things doesn‘t mean that you have the nicest *real* life, to keep family close, and more recently how important my spirituality is to me. So almost everything... ❤️📚 4y

Some stories and poems are better than others but I enjoyed looking at the artwork and singing the carols and reading the recipes about how food was made in 1896. It sounds like a lot of food was made from scratch during that period of time based on the recipes I read in here but it‘s interesting. I feel like this is a book I want to read every Christmas from now on.

AWahle My dad had a copy of this book and I remember spending hours with it. 6y
