Hundred Dollar Holiday

The Case For A More Joyful Christmas

BY BILL MCKIBBEN

Brief Description:
Many dread the approach of the holidays, a season that should be the most relaxed, intimate, joyful time of year. McKibben shows how to rethink Christmastime, so that our obsession with present-buying becomes less important than the many other possible traditions & celebrations. Working with their churches, Bill and his colleagues found people were hungry for a more joyful Christmas. Trying to limit the money they spent at Christmas to about $100 per family was a spur to creativity - and an anchor against the onslaught of commercials & catalogs that try to say Christmas is only Christmas if it's store-bought. McKibben shows us how to return to a simpler, more enjoyable holiday.
