Summer Greetings to Fellow LM_Netters, Here I am finally catching up on some of my reading. I would like to strongly recommend that you check out "The House of the Wooden Santas" by Kevin Major with wood carvings by Imelda George. It is a very thoughtful Christmas story covering the 24 days before Christmas. The illustrations are all photographs taken by Ned Pratt of Santa carvings done by Imelda. Kevin's story touches on single parent issues, friendships, moving to new locations.... The character development is wonderful and there is lots of room for children and adults to use their own imagination. But the best part is that the focus is on the power of believing in something. I can't wait to share this special book with my staff and students during the next Christmas season. I hope you will, too. It is published by Red Deer College Press here in Canada and the ISBN # is 0-88995-166-7. Happy summer reading!
