     I would like to suggest a wonderful Christmas story book titled:

                        _A Newbery Christmas_

     This book has 14 stories of Christmas by Newbery Award-winning
authors, selected by Martin H. Greenberg and Charles G. Waugh, c1991.  They
are wonderful; some funny, some tear jerkers.  Published by Delacorte Press
in New York.  Mine's a large hardback, about an inch thick.  Most stories
would take 10-30 minutes to read aloud.  The selected authors are as follows:

     Carolyn Sherwin Bailey (1947 for _Miss Hickory_)
     Beverly Cleary (1978 for _Ramona the Brave_)
                    (1983 for _Dear Mr. Henshaw_)
     Eleanor Estes (1952 for _Ginger Pye_)
     Rachel Field (1930 for _Hitty: Her First Hundred Years_)
     E.L. Konigsburg (1968 for _From the Mixed-up Files Of Mrs. Basil E.
                      Frankweiler_)
     Madeleine L'Engle (1963 for _A Wrinkle In Time_)
     Lois Lenski (1946 for _Strawberry Girl_)
     Hugh Lofting (1923 for _The Voyages Of Dr. Dolittle_)
     Katherine Paterson (1978 for _Bridge To Terabithia_)
                        (1980 for _Jacob Have I Loved_)
     Ruth Sawyer (1937 for _Roller Skates_)
     Nancy Willard (1981 for _A Visit To William Blake's Inn_)
     Elizabeth Yates (1951 for _Amos Fortune, Free Man_)
