This marvelous book was brought to my attention by one of our readers, Rebecca! Entitled 'Christmas at the White House,' the publication written by Jennifer B. Pickens details the traditions and spectacle of a White House Christmas.

With contributions from Letitia Baldrige, Lynda Johnson Robb, Betty Ford, Rosalynn Carter, Nancy Regan, Barbara Bush, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Laura Bush, this book is perfect for the holiday season.
