December Book Tips by Karin

Publisher Penguin shares a list with Christmas books. On the list the ultimate classic Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and Christmas Days by Jeanette Winterson!
I just love British author Jeanette Winterson as she writes with her heart.

For years Jeanette Winterson has written a new story at Christmas-time and in this book she brings together twelve of her brilliantly imaginative, funny and bold tales, along with twelve delicious recipes for the 12 days of Christmas.


Read this book yourself or read a story or two to your loved ones and try out some of the delicious recipes described in the book: Mrs Winterson’s Mince Pies (how traditionally British!) on page 29 and Shakespeare and Company’s (the famous English bookshop in Paris) exotic Chines Dumplings on page 173.

My all-time favourite classic Christmas books for the little ones: The Christmas Book by Dick Bruna, the author of Miffy (Nijntje in Dutch) and How the Grinch Stole Christmas! By Dr. Suess. There are animated (film) versions of both books available as well. Reading a book together is still the best way to get Children interested in reading and enriching their vocabulary in a fun way.


I would love to hear how you celebrate Christmas in your country! Is there a special Christmas family recipe that you and  your loved ones enjoy together every year? Are you exchanging gifts, do you play games? What is your favourite Christmas book to read by yourself or together?  Email me your stories and tips at: karin@englishacademy.info.
