OK people, December is here. It's the month of winter holidays, and hopefully the time of year to get a break, spend some time with friends and family, and celebrate whichever holiday you observe.
But for many of us its also a time of shopping, traffic, long lines, and probably some extra stress trying to get ready for the holidays AND trying to buy gifts for everyone on your list.
Here's a hint: give books!
Books are wonderful gifts for the readers in your life, I know I'm always excited to get one! Over the past few years I know I've given a few cookbooks, a few art books, and of course some of my favorite novels. So here are my suggestions for the 2008 holiday season:
Picture Books:
Any Todd Parr book! Great messages, silly colorful pictures!
One of my new favorites, very creative!
Any Piggie and Elephant easy readers, a hilarious must have for Mo Willems fans!
Another very cute new book.
Middle Readers (for ages 8-12):

Diary of a Wimpy Kid or any sequels...

Fablehaven or any sequels....
The Invention of Hugo Cabret
Teen Readers (12 ):
Persepolis- a graphic novel.
John Green's newest, Paper Towns, or any of his others.
Of course you can't go wrong with the Twilight series...
Adult: (Just in my humble opinion, you can't go wrong with any of the following...)
Subscriptions to Magazines are always a good gift – my favorites are Rolling Stone and Newsweek. Preview a wide selection of magazines by stopping by the library!
