Christmas Folk

The children and I read Christmas Folk by Natalia Belting/illustrated by famed artist Barbara Cooney.

Written in old-fashion rhyme, it has a quaint appeal that takes you through "The hallow days of Yule..."

At the back of the book it reads "...artist Barbara Cooney gives a rich, detailed interpretation to these otherwise little-known Yuletide customs."

My friend Jenn shared this link for ideas from former feast day ideas of St. Thomas .
