This dazzling Christmas poem by Maya Angelou is powerful and inspiring for people of all faiths. In this beautiful, deeply moving poem, Maya Angelou inspires us to embrace the peace and promise of Christmas, so that hope and love can once again light up our holidays and the world. “Angels and Mortals, Believers and Nonbelievers, look heavenward,” she writes, “and speak the word aloud. Peace.” Read by the poet at the lighting of the National Christmas Tree at the White House on December 1, 2005, Maya Angelou’ s celebration of the “Glad Season” is a radiant affirmation of the goodness of life.
A wonderful anthology of gorgeous poems - both classic and brand new - carols and hymns for Christmas. It captures all the emotion and excitement of the festive season and on through to the New Year.
Christmas is both a holiday and a holy day, and from the start it has been associated with poetry, from the song of the seraphim above the manger to the cherished carols around the punch bowl. This garland of Christmas poems contains not only the ones you would insist on finding here ("A Visit from St. Nicholas," "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming," and "The Twelve Days of Christmas" among them) but such equally enchanting though lesser-known Yuletide treasures as Emily Dickinson's "The Savior must have been a docile Gentleman," Anthony Hecht's "Christmas Is Coming," Rudyard Kipling's "Christmas in India," Langston Hughes's "Shepherd's Song at Christmas," Robert Graves's "The Christmas Robin," and happy surprises like Phyllis McGinley's "Office Party," Dorothy Parker's "The Maid-Servant at the Inn," and Philip Larkin's "New Year Poem."
Christmas is an enchanting world, brightened by a tree twinkling with lights, a cosy fireplace cleverly decorated, while the harmonious melody of Christmas music wafts through the atmosphere. It is a place where every wish comes true, a realm of pure magic where children gather to celebrate with joy. This book is the key to immersing yourself in the enchanting and warm atmosphere of the Christmas holidays. Its illustrations will warm your heart and fill your soul with the spirit of Christmas. Accompanied by short poems that convey peace and positivity, and nursery rhymes to enjoy as you wait for the most magical day of the year. This book will allow you to create precious and unforgettable moments, treasures that you and your child will carry in your hearts forever. It is the perfect complement to family gatherings, gatherings with close friends and all the traditions that lead up to Christmas. As you explore its pages, you will feel united as a family and filled with joyful anticipation for the most magical celebration of the year. Happy reading and may your Christmas be merry and bright!

"...This read-along is a richly sensory experience.... sound effects of chirping birds, tromping feet, lowing cows, whirring insects, exploding fireworks, pounding surf, buzzing bees, barking dogs, honking geese, and tolling bells create their own aural metaphors that echo the poet's verse and clearly reflect the seasons." -Booklist
