Description:
No one can resist smiling at these houses a-dazzle with twinkling lights and decked with flying reindeer, jolly snowmen, inflatable Santas, plastic sleighs—and every other sign that hearts are overflowing with Christmas cheer. It’s become a holiday tradition around the globe to drive through the neighborhood to look at these extravagantly decorated homes. Planet Christmas offers a world tour of the best and the brightest, from Auckland, New Zealand, where the Ballentine family pumps clouds of artificial snow off their balcony, to Peters Township, PA, where sightseers view Santa and Mrs. Claus presiding over a Santa’s Workshop 50 yards wide.

Details: I don't have the space or the money to have an extreme Christmas at my house, so I build on to what I have every year. This book inspired me to try some new things and each family who contributed to the making of the book had some neat tip or suggestion. I like having the best display in my neighborhood every year. The adults might think Christmas decorating is a waste of time and money, but the kids love it. I can't wait for next Christmas. My favorite is the elegant house and yard display from Springfield, Massachusetts on page 26. Other favorites are the Rice family on page 95, and the wonderful London displays on page 112 & 113.

Details: Plenty of pictures, so few words. We were hoping to find more info on decorating. Not worth the $.
