Dear Volunteers,
"Tidings of Comfort and Joy," has found a scanner. One more for Book-share.
Always With Love,

Dear Jana and Christmas Book Readers,
Jana, I don't have information on the Christmas books you asked about, but since the titles sounded familiar, I checked among my Christmas books for them.
I did find a matching pair of books which might interest someone who is still enthusiastic about scanning Christmas books. Since I don't think the season is over the minute the gifts are unwrapped, I still enjoy reading Christmas books and helping to add more to our collection until Ukrainian Christmas which is in early January. My father was Ukrainian.
The books I have are two, new hardcover copies of, Tidings of Comfort and Joy by Davis Bunn who co-authored Homecoming and a book with quilt in the title which are in the collection. This book wasn't listed. Because I have two copies, I have the perfect set up to mail a scanner one of them and then validate using that second one when the scanner tells me the scan is ready for validating. The book has 234 pages and is a small square shape in perfect condition, including the dust cover. . You'd be free to keep it or pass it on when you're finished. A few pages have unevenly shaped illustrations, but, since I have a copy of the book, I could unravel any scanner confusion.
Please contact me off list if you are interested in this project. I'm going to the post office tomorrow so you would have the book, soon.
Always With Love,
Lissi

Wow! Thanks for this link, Mike. I just went and filled up my virtual Christmas stocking! <LOL> Just out of curiosity, has anyone scanned either "The Christmas Blessing" or "The Christmas Hope?" They continue the story that began with "The Christmas Shoes." I heard an interview with the author on Sunday morning, and she said that both of the movies for "The Christmas Shoes" and "The Christmas Blessing" are very different from the books. "The Christmas Hope" was just released this year. I didn't know about that one until I heard the interview. Happy reading!

As of about 10 minutes ago:
a minimum of 118 books have been identified and listed as Christmas oriented on Jake Brownell's unoffical BookShare info site at
www.jbrownell.com.
A direct link to this listing is
Christmas Books on BookShare http://www.jbrownell.com/bks/category.asp?id=20
This listing includes the 5 Christmas titles Gustavo aproved this morning.
They appear at the bottom of the list at the above link and are:
'Tis the Season by Kathryn Quick
A Crime for Christmas (A Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys SuperMystery #2) by Carolyn Keene
The Christmas Baby's Gift by Kate Walker
Cinderella Christmas (American Romance) by Shelley Galloway
There's Something About Christmas by Debbie Macomber
If you are logged onto BookShare at the time you click onto the link for that book on Jake's page, you can download that particular book.
There are likely other Christmas books on BookShare that are not part of this list. If you are aware of any, either add them yourself or let Jake, myself, Grace or anyone else who routinely updates of that info so it can be included.
So there is plenty of Christmas material on Bookshare. And if that's not
enough, Web-Braille, part of the NLS program, has more.
