Christmas stories to tell

[Joie Taylor <jtaylor@gilligan.esu7.k12.ne.us>]

Some time ago I asked for suggestions of Christmas stories to tell to
adults. Several people asked for a hit. Sorry to be so long in posting the
responses. Following are the suggestions I received:

Cajun night before Christmas by Trosclair
The remarkable Christmas of the cobbler's sons by Ruth Sawyer also goes by
the title "Schnitzle, Schnotzel and Schnoutzle"
Politically correct holiday stories by James Finn Garner
Norman Rockwell's Christmas
Father Christmas by Raymond Briggs
Merry Christmas Festus and Mercury
Silver Packages by Cynthia Rylant
Thanksgiving Goose by Caroline Fuller Bauer (substitute Chirstmas for
Thanksgiving)
No room in the Inn  by Katherine Paterson
Children of Christmas by Rylant
"How the angle got on top of the Christmas tree" in the book Coyote Cowboy
Poetry
Emma's Christmas by Irene Travis
The best Christmas pageant ever  (would have to be adapted)

A web site for Christmas stories is

Some of these stories could be offensive, but they are tagged as clean or
offensive.
