Not a proponent of mapping "must reads" on other people, I DO have a great Christmas read for you all. Its likely not so new for some, but I read it for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. Find a soft chair, warm fire place, cup of cappuccino, and about an hour of free time. Make sure you have Henry Van Dyke's, "The Other Wiseman" with you. You just might get into the "true" sense of Christmas :)
"The Other Wiseman" can be read on the web here: or you can find an mp3 audio version here:
