Are you looking for a gift that can be treasured for years? Here are some timeless books that would make wonderful Christmas gifts. There’s something here for everyone!
Anne of Green Gables – L.M. Montgomery
Anne of Green Gables is the perfect book for any girl or woman in your life. The book follows Anne Shirley, an eleven-year-old orphan, who has been adopted by siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthberts, who thought they were adopting a boy. It follows Anne as she makes mistakes and learns from them. It is a really sweet, timeless story.
I just love the edition I linked for you from amazon. It’s so cute and really inexpensive for a hardcover!
The Chronicles of Narnia – C.S. Lewis
I own the box set of Narnia and I love it. They are quick, easy sit-down reads, and very entertaining. The perfect gift for anyone!
This series follows the Pevensie children as they journey to another where they face fantastic creatures and epic battles between good and evil.
Little Woman – Louisa May Alcott
Little women is an inspiring classic novel that follows the lives of the four March sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, and details their passages from childhood to womanhood.
I think this would make a great gift for any teen girl.
Sherlock Holmes – Arther Conan Doyle
The Sherlock Holmes complete box set collection is perfect for fans of the show, and mystery lovers! I own a vintage copy of one of the Sherlock books, but if someone would get me this set for Christmas that would be amazing! I feel like only smart people own a collection of Sherlock, lol.
The Princess Bride – S. Morgenstern
Fans of the movie would greatly appreciate this edition of the novel written by S. Morgenstern. This edition includes gorgeous illustrations.
The Neverending Story – Michael Ende
Who doesn’t want a copy of the neverending story? I don’t think many people are aware of the book, so it’s definitely something that’s not on everyone’s shelves.
“The story begins with a lonely boy named Bastian and the strange book that draws him into the beautiful but doomed world of Fantastica. Only a human can save this enchanted place by giving its ruler, the Childlike Empress, a new name. But the journey to her tower leads through lands of dragons, giants, monsters, and magic, and once Bastian begins his quest, he may never return. As he is drawn deeper into Fantastica, he must find the courage to face unspeakable foes and the mysteries of his own heart.”
The Valancourt Book of Victorian Christmas Ghost Stories
Did you know that it was common for people to tell creepy ghost stories during the Christmas season? This is a collection of some of those ghost stories. I’ve never read it myself, but I hear the stories are actually pretty scary.
A Series of Unfortunate Events – Lemony Snicket
You can never go wrong with a Series of Unfortunate Events.
Poison For Breakfast – Lemony Snicket
This is a unique book written in first person and follows Lemony Snicket as he receives a note informing him he had poison for breakfast. He investigates the sources of each of his breakfast’s ingredients to figure out what might have poisoned him.
This book is known to appeal to both adults and kids.
Thanks a bunch!
