Father Christmas needs a wee by Nicholas Allan is a sweet stocking-filler for children who can easily identify with Santa's situation ;)
By now you may be asking yourself why so many books for children... well, I love these books, I love Christmas and all it involves and so do my children. As Charles Dickens put it in "A Christmas Carol": "It's good to be children sometimes and never better than at Christmas..."

About Me
- Teacher Alex
- Portugal
- I am from Coimbra, Portugal, and am currently teaching in a school in Soure, about 30 km away from Coimbra. I have been a teacher of English for over 20 years and have already taught different levels and age groups. After all this time I can say I love working with adult groups because there are no coursebooks and I can create my own resources. I am an avid reader, a blogger and very curious about free tools and their implementation in the classroom.

4 days to Christmas
For today... well, another delicious children's story this time by Dr Seuss, How the Grinch stole Christmas. Just like with so many bestsellers, this book was also adapted in 2000 into a live-action film starring Jim Carrey.

5 days to Christmas
Almost there!!! Christmas is approaching and fast, isn´t it?
For today I have thought about a book by poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy based on real events, The Christmas Truce, name also given to the unofficial armistice in the WWI trenches. Hope you like it ;)
