About our christmas stories
Christmas short stories for the whole family: a lantern that guides a girl and her dog home on Christmas Eve, a snow globe with a secret, candles that bring a village together, a boy who has to find a lost magic whistle before morning. There are snowy villages, kind strangers, elves and Christmas miracles, and plenty of warmth, with nothing too scary for younger listeners.
Most stories take about five minutes to read aloud, a good length on a December evening or in the last week of school before the holidays. Under each story you'll find a short moral, questions to talk about and some new words.
If your children love these, try our bedtime stories and kids stories. For grown-up feel-good reading, our happy stories.
