Baby Boomers, remember the holidays? Aluminum trees, "The Chipmunks Song," TV specials with the Peanuts gang or the Grinch? Remember making Chex Mix and Green Bean Casseroles?

The true and sometimes wacky stories behind the fads and holiday traditions of the Boomer Era are stuffed into this book. Who invented Bubble Lites?  Did an Oregon DJ really get fired on the air for playing Elvis' version of "White Christmas?" What were the secret histories of Barbie and Ken, Slinkys, Play-Doh, and games like Operation? 
The Boomer Book of Christmas Memories reveals all this and more! If you're a Baby Boomer, or if you want to thrill someone born between 1946 and the 1960s, this book is certain raise a smile, a squeal, and maybe even a toast.
