In the 1960s, we children would read a poem or part of a story to the rest of the family in the living room, lighted only by candles, then pass the book to the next child to read. The memory is very sweet. I retrieved the book from my family's home's attic some years ago. My father (who still lives) has little sentimentality and said "sure, take it". I take it out now during Advent just to read some of the stories. I still hope to pass on that tradition when I have children.
