Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Combining fiction and nonfiction, this dramatic story set in the snowy backwoods follows the Robertson family as they prepare for Christmas in 1841. They are excitedly expecting visitors from afar. But as a winter storm begins to rage, the family fears for the safety of the travelers. How will Andrew and Sophie -- with a baby on the way -- fare on such a dangerous journey? Each chapter of the story is enhanced by information about the pioneer period and how Christmas was celebrated in the past. Children will learn about holiday traditions in more detail through crafts, games, songs and other activities. Even 150 years ago, Christmas was a special time. A companion book to A Pioneer Thanksgiving, A Pioneer Christmas weaves together stories, information and activities to create a tapestry of pioneer life.

I am a second grade teacher at a public school and we do a whole unit on Pioneers. My students loved this book. We read one or two chapters a day for about a week during the holidays. There are some very nice pioneer crafts and recipes that are included in the book. A Pioneer Christmas was a great addition to our studies about pioneer life. I would highly recommend.

Yet a second sequel (following the Thanksgiving book) about a pioneer Scots family in Canada. As always, chapters are followed by information about the era and simple historical craft projects that can be done. The illustrations are nicely detailed.
