These My Christmas Dreams is an inspirational look at Christmas through the eyes of a dreamer. As you read through this book and savor the dreams, you'll look at the story of Christ's birth in a different way. You'll find comfort and peace in the midst of this busy season and be drawn closer to the one we honor, Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God. The chief message of the book is God's incredible love for you. It sings a song of worship, and using Scripture abundantly, cements in our minds the real reason Christ came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem. Reading the dreams and the accompanying messages, you'll see yourself, your struggles, and your dreams. You'll be drawn in a remarkable way to the creator of the world, the healer of your heart, and the author of your finest dreams. Diane Gruchow is a wife, mother and grandmother. She has been writing for her family and friends during the past twenty years. Her poetry and prose have been read in churches and homes across the country. She lives with her husband of 46 years in the beautiful Colorado mountains where she rides her horses, writes, and enjoys God's incredible creation. She counts among her special blessings the times she has spent teaching, mentoring young moms, and being involved in her church's lay counseling ministry. Diane says, "God has been involved in my life since childhood. Many of the days he doggedly sought me, but commitment to him was slow to come. I have loved him, feared him, cursed him, taken him for granted, and finally given my life to him. He is my reason for living. My gratitude for his forgiveness and love reaches the depths of my soul."

It's December 24th, and the old farmer settles down for a winter's nap, wondering how Christmas can come when there is no snow! In his dream he imagines a snowstorm covering him and his animals—named One, Two, Three, Four and Five—in a snowy blanket. But when the farmer awakens, he finds that it has really snowed outside, and now he remembers something! Putting on his red suit, he goes outside and places gifts under the tree for his animals, bringing holiday cheer to all. "Few in number are the parents who have made it through their toddler's years on just one copy of Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Dream Snow has similar ingredients: a simple story, lively collage-like illustrations and a fun gimmick for little hands . . ." —Time "This is a simple, well-told story about a simple farmer. . . . Viewers. . . will want to get their hands on it." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Carle fans and toddlers learning the basics will . . . enjoy the gentle text and creative design features." —Booklist "The pictures are in Carle's trademark richly colored and textured collages that capture the snowy magic of Christmas." —Kirkus Reviews

This multinational, multidisciplinary collection of essays focuses on Hallmark Channel movies and Hallmark’s position in the changing North American media landscape. This book covers the ‘Countdown to Christmas’ offerings, year-round productions, made-for-TV mysteries and romances, Hallmark’s use of specific filming locations, and its relationship to viewer desires.
