The Tucson Festival of Books has come up with a list of holiday titles that you can pick up for yourself or for someone you love this December.
Special to the Arizona Daily Star Christmas trees have been on display at Costco since Labor Day and now, finally, we too can start warming up to the year-end holidays.
“Red and Green and Blue and White” by Lee Wind and Paul Zelinsky is a picture book for children that features Isaac, whose street is decorated in red and green for Christmas. His house is decorated in blue and white for Hanukkah. When someone smashes Isaac’s window in an act of antisemitism, his friend Teresa encourages the community to place thousands of menorahs in their windows. It is a true story about children influencing others to stand up for justice.
“Little Women” by Louisa May Alcott is a coming-of-age classic we remember for lots of reasons, but at least some of its resonance comes from the fact it takes place around Christmas. It’s one of our greatest books … and has been adapted into a couple of pretty great movies, too! — Kim Peters “An Irish Country Christmas” by Patrick Taylor and “A Christmas Bookshop” by Jenny Colgan. No one writes more lovingly about Ireland and the Irish than these two. Their novels are perfect complements to an Irish Coffee and a lazy fire. In “An Irish Country Christmas,” Dr. Barry Laverty learns his sweetheart may not get back for the holidays. His patients keep him busy … and in the Christmas spirit. Colgan has written at least 10 books about Christmas, the latest being “A Christmas Bookshop.
