A Christmas tradition at my house, brought by Santa and found in the stocking (helps to fill up the stocking!). I especially like this almanac because it has less popular culture in it (movie stars, singers, etc). As a family who watches very little TV the popular culture/entertainment aspects of other almanacs were not of much interest.Highly recommend this book for months of casual reading.

Got this for a very inquisitive almost 6 year old. She would rather read fun facts like this than anything else.

awesome book filled with great pictures and facts. loved by grandkids & grandpa
