Do you have certain gifts you love to give during the holiday? Personally, I always love to give books or gift cards for purchasing books. In a way, it is the best gift around since it gives you knowledge, or send you into a totally different world! I also love that I never know what new books I will getting for Christmas.  Do you give books as gifts during the holidays? If you hadn't considered it, here are 12 great reasons why books are the perfect gift!

    LOL Love the books last longer than fruitcake. Too funny. 

    Indeed books are the best give, especially for my husband who can read through 1000 page books in like 2 weeks.

    so true! but i also think its difficult to pick which book!

    I totally agree! Maybe I am biased as an elementary teacher, but books are especially great for kids. Just put a good book in a child's hands (or read it to them, even better!), and they will become engrossed.

    I really enjoyed reading this post. I love books and so does my daughter. She gets books every Christmas. I also buy books for my great niece. They do make the best gifts!

    Love the fact that my Sister, Daughters, and Brother-in-law love to read. I plan on going shopping tomorrow for some books I know they will love.

    This is such a cute post. Books are a valuable commodity and provide endless information. With everybood I read I go looking for another one. I wish more people had the same appreciation for books that I do.

    Cute! I love giving and receiving books! In our house my son gets to ask for something he needs, something to read, something to wear and something he wants. He loves books and has quite the list of what books he wants!

    I starting giving my kids books for Christmas when they were little.  It encouraged them to read, and gave them a love for reading, because the books were theirs, brought to them by Santa.  They all still read to this day and thet are grown up.

    I Love giving books as presents to my grandsons. They last so much longer than toys. I still have some of my children’s books

    I give books as gifts a lot because they seem to be so appreciated, especially to those that love books.  I know we live in a technological world, but there is something about holding a book that is so comforting.

  21. Anna says

    This is so cute!  Books are some of my favorite presents. Sometimes it can be hard to pick a book you know the recipient will like though.

  22. Jessica says

    December 19, 2013 at 10:00 pm

    ALL TRUE! Books are great!

    I love this, especially with the cute lil owl!  I love books, I mean real books.  Old-school, no digital.

    Books are one of my favorite gifts to receive!

    This is a great picture/story for why everyone should get a book or two for Christmas!  There is something for everyone and you don't need to know any sizes!  Such a cute graphic and so true!

    i think bools are an awesome gift. they are gret learning tools, they can be fun to read ands they keep your kids quiet for awhile. lol!!

    I give my kids books every holiday, including birthdays and "just because". We are a house full of readers. Whenever anyone ask me what I want, I always say, either a gift card to Michaels (I do arts and crafts and baking), or a gift card to Barnes and Noble. Makes it easier for them.

  28. Sunnymay says

    December 23, 2013 at 3:16 pm

    Books can be individualized to the person and match up with their interests or hobbies.

  29. Michelle says

    December 25, 2013 at 6:15 pm

    Number 11 is my favorite, because it's so true! It doesn't matter how financially strapped you might be, you can go wherever you want in book. Books are always available through your local library and most cities/towns have book sales through local organizations on an annual basis. That's how I've gotten lots of my books.
