 I’m a grandmother who has returned to college to get her degree. This has come at no small sacrifice. I’ve had to move out of state for the time being and only get to see my husband ,children and grandchild when I go home during the break between semesters. I talk to them everyday and here about how fast my grandson is growing-up. This would allow me to not miss so much and kepp us connected

The Story

This book is based on a true family story passed down for generations about Hazel’s coal mining family and an unforgettable Christmas experience in the 1920s.  Set in the heart of the Appalachian coalfields, Cole Family Christmas tells the story of a how the Cole children are allowed to ask Santa for gifts from the Sears catalogue wish book. Unfortunately, there was an snowstorm and everything turned topsy turvy where Christmas gifts are given and received in an unpredicted manner. Find out how this unexpected event turned out into a joyful and memorable holiday for all.

Verdict

A book that comes in hardcover always receive a plus from me. Cole Family Christmas is made up of 9 short chapters for an easy and quick read. A heart warming story, ideal for readers of age 8-12, it can also  help encourage family-time by reading aloud to one another. Promotes values such as compassion, tenderness and the importance of being a family. I am giving it a 7 out of 10 rating.

I am sure all moms will agree that getting our toddlers or young children to stay clean is no easy feat. Though it is essential that they understand the importance of cleanliness and hygiene, making the young ones stick to their healthy habits is another daunting task.

Huggies® Cleanteam® delivers fun cleaning products in an interactive, entertaining, and easy way through their cute cartoon characters like Daphne Dolphin, Sammy Snake, Henry Hippo, Freddy Flamingo, Billy Bison, Wally Whale and Carley Crab.
