Has anybody else ever read this book? I read it when I was a kid and loved it. Then I re-read it when I was 17 and loved it. Then just a few weeks ago it popped into my head and now I've ordered it from Amazon. I've been eagerly awaiting it's arrival- I'm hoping in time for me to read before Christmas. It's hilarious and a book that both kids and grownups will equally enjoy. So if you've read it please leave a comment and let me know so we can gush about it together!

ReplyDeleteyup. one of my all time favorites. we used to read it every year when i was a kid!
ReplyDeleteoh gosh, I loved this book. I read it when I was in middle school and it completely changed my outlook on the holidays since then- I think it brings such humanity to the Christmas season, especially in this day in age when we're surrounded by so much commercialism. Did I mention I love this book??? Great post :)
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot about this book-I loved it too!
ReplyDeleteOur middle school did this as a play. I had a part in it and fell in love! Thanks for reminding me about this book! I may have to get it to.... :)
ReplyDeleteOf course I have my own copy! I bought one when I was teaching and read it to the 3rd graders! I can't wait to start reading it to the girls. Thanks for reminding me. I might read it this week. What teacher read it to us? Someone did right?
ReplyDeleteI never actually read it but when I was 7 I was in the a small stage production of it ;) I played Gladys and my older brother played Ollie =)
