Book Review: “Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Gift of Christmas”

Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Gift of Christmas: A Special Collection of Joyful Holiday Stories

By Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and Amy Newmark
480 Pages (Paperback)
Date Published: October 9, 2012

This extra long collection of 121 Christmas stories will warm readers’ hearts and spread the wonder of the holiday season with its tales of love, joy, and awe. A great holiday gift.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Gift of Christmas will delight readers with its stories about the joy, wonder, and blessings of the holiday season. This special collection is filled with joyful, heartwarming and merry stories about holiday traditions, family, and goodwill that the whole family will enjoy. Most of these stories originally appeared in a limited edition book called Chicken Soup for the Soul: Tales of Christmas.

Christmas is my favorite holiday because of both giving and receiving presents.  I love the whole spirit of Christmas, but I admit when things go wrong in everyday life it can be easy to slip away from the holiday cheer.  This new Chicken Soup book is not only thicker than other Chicken Soup books (by about 100 pages) but it contains so many amazing stories that are perfect to get you in the spirit and remember what Christmas is all about.  Sometimes we (at least I do) forget about others who may not celebrate Christmas because they are alone of because they can’t afford it.  The stories in the book are inspiring and while they are all related to Christmas, there stories can really be applied to year round everyday-life.  I love how I can read a story in just minutes and then either read another one or put the book down without getting lost.

  • on Christmas a few years ago, we woke up to snow, snow, and more snow. every year we go to my parents house for christmas dinner along with aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc. that year we almost didn't make it with all the snow! but not one of us ended up missing the dinner!!

  • I remember every year going to a holiday party where my parents used to work. It was so much fun. I got to sit and talk to Santa. =)

  • We never had gifts growing up for Christmas or birthdays, etc... The most valuable tradition my parents taught me was about love, family, food, and togetherness over the holidays. Most worthwhile tradition I have have ever found!

  • I remember going with my parents on BART every year to go see the lights in San Francisco. Everything was so beautiful!

  • I remember staying up all night long with my sister and brothers waiting for santa and calling down the stairs every half hour if we could open gifts.
