Books with title The Spirit of Christmas.

★★★★★ "As with Dickens' story, Christmas Spirit leaves the reader to ponder whether it is a secular story or one of Christian allegory. Regardless, it's a short and quick read that belies the profundity within. A truthful warning or an imaginative fiction, I've read the story three times, and with each re-read, I find another gem of philosophical import. I highly recommend Christmas Spirit to all readers for its intrinsic philosophy applicable to the religious and non-religious, spiritual or not, and those who simply enjoy interesting stories written in a style seldom seen these days." ~ Lex Allen for Readers' Favorite ★★★★★ "Christmas Spirit has a well defined plot through the eyes of Ebenezer Scrooge as he visits his own childhood as well as the distant future. The characters are easy to understand and relate to as Scrooge recounts the warnings of Chronos for mankind and the consequences of straying from the path we were intended to take. I love how World Codex Staff and Meredith Carson can make the reader think about how technology affects daily life on a more profound level. I would recommend that everyone read Christmas Spirit. I believe that the story will inspire people to take stock of their lives and possibly rethink living with the lack of spirituality." ~ Amy Raines for Readers' Favorite ★★★★★ "Meredith Carson and the World Codex Staff's holiday-themed novella, Christmas Spirit is an elegant and intricate blend of Victoriana, metaphysics and apocalyptic fiction as the now-departed Ebenezer Scrooge shares the details of his own life and reveals the future of humanity. As with the other offerings by the World Codex Staff, I began reading this story expecting to find my imagination challenged and my insights on the world and reality tweaked just a bit, or maybe even a bit more. I was not disappointed. This well-written and absorbing story kept me enthralled from the first page to the last. I especially enjoyed Scrooge's retelling of the fateful hunting trip on that snowy Christmas Eve. Christmas Spirit is most highly recommended." ~ Jack Magnus for Readers’ Favorite ★★★★★ "Meredith Carson unfolds the "Christmas Spirit" in a well-written, fast-paced, and delightful narrative. We readers and listeners alike sit back and let our imaginations fly. This page-turner keeps us wanting more. We cannot wait to find out what happens next. In fact, you may think you know where the story is leading just before you learn that you do not. In Christmas Spirit, we allow Meredith Carson to spirit us away from our everyday life and drop us back in time to our days of sipping hot chocolate while our moms read us special stories at Christmas time, and this is a special Christmas story. It is intriguing, exciting, and heartbreaking. All three make for a retold Christmas story year after year." ~ Geree McDermott for Readers' Favorite

In the same feel-good style of I Got the Rhythm, this exuberant picture book explores the joys of the holiday season, once again illustrated by award-winning artist Frank Morrison.It's the most wonderful time of the year, and a mother and daughter are enjoying the sights and sounds of the holiday season. The little girl hears sleigh bells ringing and carolers singing. She smells chestnuts roasting--CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRUNCH!--and sees the flashing lights of the department store windows--BLING! BLING! BLING! She spreads the spirit of giving wherever she goes. And when she reaches Santa, she tells him her Christmas wish--for peace and love everywhere, all the days of the year.

Pamela Dalton's exquisite, intricate scissor-cut illustrations wonderfully illuminate The Story of Christmas. Deeply reverent, richly detailed, and teeming with life, Dalton s images follow the story of the Nativity from the appearance of the Angel, to the shepherds who came from the fields, and to the three wise men who followed the star to pay respect for their new king. Working in a Pennsylvania-German folk-art tradition, rich with lovingly rendered animals and figures, Pamela Dalton has created a book that takes a deserved place among the finest celebrations of Christmas.
