The Winter Story Book: Stories, Poems, and Legends of Winter, Christmas, and New Year's Day

From snow-covered fields and long winter nights to Christmas festivities and New Year traditions, The Winter Story Book gathers a thoughtful collection of tales, poems, and legends that celebrate the colder months of the year.

'"Once upon a time," in the winter season suggests happy, young faces grouped about a blazing fire ... the cosiness indoors is very attractive, especially now that the evening story hour is at hand.'

Bringing together much-loved stories, classic poems, and cultural legends from around the world, this collection offers a glimpse into the beauty and meaning found in winter. Featuring works by renowned writers such as Charles Dickens, Leo Tolstoi, and Christina Rossetti.

This seasonal anthology is part of a matching collection alongside The Spring Story Book, The Summer Story Book, and The Autumn Story Book. Gathered from many hands and many countries, the stories, poems, and legends in each volume are arranged to carry the reader through the season from its first signs to its close. Curated by Ada M. Skinner and Eleanor L. Skinner in 1917, The Winter Story Book is presented here by Read & Co. Classics as one of a treasured set of four.
