December Reading

I have a great book for all of you to read this month; it's Holidays On Ice by David Sedaris! It's short, only 144 pages, and it is hilarious! Holidays on Ice is a compilation of short stories including; "Santa Land Diaries" which is the story of David's time working as an elf at Christmas time in the mall, "Seasons Greetings to our friends and family" which takes the chipper Christmas family form letter and turns it on it's head, "Front Row Center with Thaddeus Bristol" written as a critic reviewing children's Christmas pageants, "Dinah, the Christmas Whore" the story of the time a prostitute spent Christmas with the Sedaris family, "Based on a True Story" where a sleazy television agent invades a small town church to try to convince one of it's parish to sell their story, and "Christmas means Giving" the story of neighbors who try to out do each other by giving as much as they can.
So give yourself a present this Christmas and read Holidays On Ice!
