Product Description

Through the pages of this book, country music fans can share the joys of Christmas with some of America’s most beloved stars. This rich collection of memories and traditions features stories—in the stars’ own words—of childhood memories and favorite ways of celebrating the most festive holiday of the year. Stars like Dolly Parton and Billy Ray Cyrus recall how childhoods like theirs—poor in terms of money, but rich in terms of love—resulted in some of the happiest Christmas memories they have. And memories are being made today with stars like Tim McGraw, Tanya Tucker, and Clint Black, who discover anew the magic of Christmas through their children’s eyes.

Photos reveal the private side of the stars, and their recipes make Christmas country-style easy to achieve, with dishes such as Barbara Mandrell’s Christmas turkey and Alan Jackson’s cornbread stuffing, John Michael Montgomery’s wild goose with currant sauce, Charlie Daniels’s sugar cookies, Naomi Judd’s miniature fruitcakes, and many more.

The 15-track CD features songs specially recorded for this book. The album includes Tim Rushlow’s “Little Drummer Boy,” The Jordanaires’s “Joy to the World,” and Kristy Rhode’s “Come On Ring Those Bells.”

A portion of the proceeds from this book will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum®, and the Edie Hand Foundation™.

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is operated by the non-profit, educational Country Music Foundation (CMF).
