This is a wonderful collection of stories and poems, that are amusing, charming, and yet full of Christmas spirit. I really liked this one, and plan to read it for many Christmases to come!

Good book for a busy holiday month. Short stories.

Such a charming read for the month of December. Louisa May Alcott delighted me once again.

All her Christmas stories really have the feel of Little Women. Wonderful!

A sweet collection of little Christmas stories--some were overly treacly for my taste, and they're better in small doses than read all at once, but I'm glad I pulled this collection out this year. 2020 can use more happy endings.

A number of these short stories were available for free on hoopla audio. I listened to all the ones I had access to and thought they were cute little snippets, but of course nothing like a classic tale of Louisa May Alcott "Little women"

So these stories do kinda start to all sound the same. But they're all so charming and idyllic that I still enjoyed it immensely. Perfect addition to any Christmas library.

What a sweet treasure to read leading up to Christmas. I had no idea how bankrupt her family was, and yet Ms. Alcott worked so hard to keep the family stable. Touching stories, great for adults and children. The vocabulary is superb, and each story reminds the reader of what is important for every day, not just Christmas. When we take our eyes off ourselves and our needs/wants, we are blessed in so many ways. Can't wait to read a story to the children on Christmas morning.

Lovely little collection of darling short Christmas tales primarily focusing on charity, good will towards your fellow man and moral choices. There were a couple tales that were repetitive, but overall a wonderful way to get in the spirit of Christmas and a reminder of what’s really important during this time. It would be a nice gift for a reader and would be nice to revisit some stories each year, especially to read aloud as a family.

Many short stories with Christmas theme...a great way to prepare for the Christmas season. Each of these is a treasure written by my favorite author! This is a book of 19th century classic short stories.
#1 A 19th century classic.

A book of short holiday stories written by Louisa May Alcott. Some I loves, and some I did not like.

This book contains Christmas-themed stories by the author of Little Women. Some of the stories are newly collected here and others have been published in other anthologies. Most contain a heavy-handed moral about charitable giving similar to A Christmas Carol. Some of the stories resemble Lucy Maud Montgomery's later tales of orphans and country life.

This is a nice anthology to add to any Louisa May Alcott collection. Small two-tone illustrations are placed throughout the book. They don't add anything to the stories but they're very lifelike and pretty. The cover is gorgeous and made to look like a red morocco leather and gilt engraved book of the 19th century. It's actually regular hardcover boards but I love that it looks period. My only complaint about this volume is that it doesn't include a bibliography. I'd like to know when and where each story was published.
