A Child's Christmas in Wales by Dylan Thomas (definitely a literary pick--look at sample chapter)

The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding by Agatha Christie

Obviously, tons of books about Christmas exist!! I found lots of "lite" mysteries if we wanted to go in that direction.

  1. The Worst Noel sounds great! Maybe not too Christmas-y, but interesting! Didn't Melissa say she hates Christmas? She would probably like it!

  2. The Worst Noel does sound good to me - you're right Hannah! That's my vote so far...
