We all have stories about how our families get together during the holidays. Some of us fly across another state coming home from school, work, or any other endeavor to be back with our families in our sweet hometown. There’s another set of people close to my heart, and those are the military Christmas stories I know of. Perhaps, you are in this post because you are looking for military Christmas books that will warm your heart.

This post is brought to you in part by Valencia “Neci” Perkins, the author of the #1 Amazon New Release “The Holiday Wishing Well”. Perkins is also an owner and founder of A Girl In Her Bag, LLC. The Holiday Wishing Well is a children’s storybook inspired by the military family geared towards the Christmas season.

Why We Love Inspirational Military Christmas Stories

I was plunged into military life shortly after marrying my husband in 2017. It is an experience like no other, and I believe no one can truly understand it unless they have been part of it. It is a life of constant change, colorful memories, challenges of relocations, and a test of character. The sacrifice of the military family is unique and something to be thankful for.

The reason I was looking for military Christmas books is that I want to show my readers, who are potentially spouses of servicemen as well about wonderful stories that they can share with their children especially during this time where the holidays are in full swing. In this post, I will be sharing the value of sharing a military Christmas story to your children or gift it to families whom you know are in service, as inspired by Neci Perkins’ The Holiday Wishing Well.

Best Military Christmas Books: Top Reasons To Get Them

Providing comfort and hope

If you are a military spouse or parent and you know that your deployed service member is not coming home exactly during Christmas, the story of “The Holiday Wishing Well” provides comfort and hope for you and your children.

It is a reminder that whether your spouse or family member comes back home during Christmas or not, they will eventually come back and are longing to be in your presence. This brings peace to your heart as well as your children.

Valuing the most important things during holidays

The Holiday Wishing Well also brings an emphasis on the importance of one’s family during the holidays. I believe it is one of the most touching military Christmas books on children that I have read. In the story, Carter, who may be excited about his activities during the holidays, knows that the best thing that could happen is his dad coming home for Christmas.

Thus, he set on a task to go to the holiday wishing well, where we get the title of the story. It is also a reminder of valuing one’s family on top of the exciting gifts and activities.

Importance of faith

Whether it’s faith in God and faith in loved ones, we can rely on inspirational military Christmas stories such as The Holiday Wishing Well to hold out hope no matter what.

Sometimes, the world can get very dark. These books are a reminder that no matter what, there’s always a glimmer of hope and the gray clouds will eventually pass. Keeping the faith will see us through despite life’s challenges especially this year.

Thoughtful gift idea

Whether you’re serving in the armed forces or not, I believe that sharing wonderful military Christmas books to those who need them will be one of the most thoughtful things you can do this season.

If you’re someone who knows of another family that serves in the armed forces, The Holiday Wishing Well will be a perfect, unique gift for their children and parents–Christmas and beyond. The lessons and values instilled in this story deeply touch people, especially those who are experiencing the challenges of military life.

I hope you found these insights useful as you tread through the holiday season. As always, don’t forget to check out Neci Perkins’ work and her socials to know her more as a bestselling author and entrepreneur.
