FAMILY FUN
Guardian Angel Publishing just released
Christmas Caroling Classics, Book Two* of my new Colleen Reece Chapbooks series for kids and parents.
Nine-year-old Dennis and seven-year-old Sarah
love singing Christmas carols. Dennis wants to know where the carols
came from and why they are called classics. Mom suggests that the
children look up the answer to that question and report on the find in
their family worships between then and Christmas.
Dennis and Sarah eagerly agree and discover some surprising facts. A preacher who was considered one of the greatest of his time wrote over 700 hymns and psalms. However, he couldn't compare with another man who wrote over 6000 hymns! The children's favorite story is about naughty mice that may well have been the reason for one of the world's best-loved Christmas hymns.
Suggested age range for readers: 6-10.

Congratulations on your new release! It sounds like it's full of stories that both adults and children will enjoy.
You sure have a wealth of story ideas! Congrats on the new release (:
I love the idea of hearing the stories behind the songs and am especially curious about the one involving mice. ;)
Love the cover! Reminds me of the nostalgic Christmas scenes from my childhood.
