We're so happy to have Rochelle Pennington's new book "An Old Fashioned Christmas".  Lots of nostalgic remembrances and photos.  We especially like it because it includes a section on "Billie the Brownie", an elf invented by Schuster's Department store in Milwaukee.  He helped Santa and was a favorite of children who crowded around the radio.  The book includes a CD with excerpts of the radio programs.

We also have copies of Pennington's book about the "Christmas Tree Ship", the ship that annually carried Christmas trees on Lake Michigan to Chicago.
