Christmas Time is in the air. If you are around children, their excitement is contagious. God surely knew when he gave us the Christ child, that CHILDREN would love the holiday. I am excited to see more children knowing the True meaning of Christmas. The birth of our savior is exciting. And while the gift giving sometimes gets out of hand, I think the Wisemen gave us a great example to give Him gifts. I believe it is because of love within us, that gift giving then must extend to our giving gifts to others we love as well…of course~ This Bashful Book Bee, loves giving gifts.... and most of the time they are books, of course, ~
My number one gift book for children is one of my all-time favorite books.
The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams was written in 1922.

However, this classic tale still will be loved by all…from young children to adults. The sweet little story is a young stuffed rabbit given to a young boy at Christmas. While the story is primarily about the loving relationship the boy develops with his toy, the toy also meets many new animals in the nursery. These new acquaintances give the young rabbit the brutal truth that "he" is not "real". The toy rabbit's greatest desire is to become real. However, through the sincere love the rabbit has for the boy, he learns the awesome lesson of selfless love, which proves to be the magic of being truly REAL.
