Celebrate Christmas

About the Book

This collection of Holiday and Inspirational songs is taken from the library of Lauri Allen and spans almost forty years of her writing. Everyone always loves the old standby classic Christmas carols and sings them every year. Lauri wanted to give the holidays some new carols and songs to sing along with the old ones. Along the way of her music career, she has become a great lover of animals. Raising a number of different kinds of animals throughout her life, the pictures in this book are some of those animals she has raised and kept as pets and that she considers members of her family. She's included them because animals are a great inspiration for unconditional love, kindness and loyalty and she's tried to incorporate these feelings into her songs.

About the Author

Lauri Allen has a B.A. degree in music from U.C.L.A. She is a singer, composer and lyricist and for many years, a hand music copyist, before the invention of computers printing music. In those days, music copying was considered an art form. She has composed many songs and several musical shows over the past forty years, among which are a number of Christmas holiday and inspirational songs which are included in this collection. The songs were hand-copied and photographed so they are all in Lauri's own music-copying style.
