Preparing for Advent: A series to help you get ready

Year after year I feel like Advent sneaks up on me before I have enough time to prepare for it.  I assume I'm not the only one who realizes a day or two before Advent begins that I didn't order the books I wanted for myself or my children.  So in an effort to be better prepared myself and to hopefully help some of you plan for this season, I have decided to do a series entitled Preparing for Advent.

I haven't decided everything that will be included in this series, but there will be a number of books aimed at helping you get ready for Advent and Christmas.  I'll share reviews of some of the Advent and Christmas books that are in my review pile as well as some of my favorite story books to read to the girls and my religious education class.

I know it's October and it may seem like I'm super early with these posts, but I think it helps to have some lead time in case you decide you want to order a book or look for it at a local bookstore.  I've had more than a few instances where I saw a book that was perfect for celebrating a particular feast day the day of and found myself wishing I had known about it a week or so beforehand.
