If you want more out of your holiday than credit card debt, stop in the library and check out one of our many holiday books. Whether it's cooking, crafts, or a familiar Charles Dickens story that peaks your interest, we have a little bit of everything to add something extra to your holiday.

"Even if you are a bibliophile, there is a good chance that you have never heard of the "gift book" fad that swept England and the United States in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. It played an important role in the development of the Christmas we know today."-from Inventing Christmas How Our Holiday CameTo Be by Jock Elliot


Joy Through the World by the U.S. Committee for UNICEF- A book of holiday celebrations of feasting and giving around the world including authentic recipes, menus, decorations, gifts, and toys to make.

Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris- A great book any time of the year. From the author of Naked and Me Talk Pretty One Day, a collection of six short humourous essays. This is a great read during your busy holiday season when your quality reading time may be taking a back burner.
