A Seasonal Book Question

rosemary_greenAre there books that you find yourself re-reading at this time of year?
Some of mine are:
Under the Greenwood Tree by Thomas Hardy (Christmas caroling around the village, with mixed success!)
The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper (lots of midwinter and Christmas traditions -- I've read this one out of the series about 10 times as often as the others!)
Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame (the Dulce Domum chapter, with the mice caroling -- by the way, their song has been put to music and recorded by the group The Gladly Solemn Sound as The Fieldmice's Carol)
The Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter
Lament for a Maker by Michael Innes (not holiday related, but full of snow and cold and gloominess -- a good winter book!)
Any others?
