Reading to Maddie's class

Today I read a book to Maddie's class. It was fun and was a "been there, done that" feeling. The children were very good listeners and answered all my questions as I read.

The book was This is the Stable, a nicely illustrated book about the Nativity. After searching two major bookstores, I am disappointed in this year's crop of Christmas books. Patricia McKissack has a new one, but it is too long to read aloud and is a "girl" book about a doll. I didn't even find a new version of Twas the Night before Christmas to add to my collection. Maybe that is a sign that my collection is big enough!.
