Dear Readers: I hope that you have enjoyed the “Children’s Literature Bookshelf” during the past year. Buying books for your children, grandchildren, or nephews and nieces can be one of the most pleasant Christmas activities of the season. 

You may read all the reviews of the past year (and of several previous years as well!) at this link. I hope that this list will give you some ideas for books that might make nice Christmas presents.

It has been an honor to have written these book talks for the Southern Nebraska Register. Thanks for the book recommendations and encouragement you have given me. I hope that you and your family have a joyful Christmas.
