This week we have been reading from that book.

We are continuing with pieces that are (sort of) about Christmas this week.
Today's poem has been reprinted ad infinitum over the last century, and been read online a considerable number of times (Librivox has at least one nice version). Up until now, virtually all of the reprints and readings have been credited to a writer named 'John Challing' whom we have discovered was a nom de plume for world-famous poet James Whitcomb Riley.
Here then, from 1905, is the delightful 'A Rhyme for Christmas.'
