Best Books for Stocking Stuffers
Now that we know, from the last blog post about favorite stocking stuffers, that the best stocking fillers are books of various types, let’s take a look at what books make the best stocking stuffers. Here’s a list of top stocking fillers for kids, teens and young adults in order of preference:
- comic books
- joke books
- fiction books
- non-fiction books
Comic books are convenient stocking stuffers for parents and Santa because they are inexpensive, very popular with youngsters and easy to fit in the top of Christmas stockings. Joke books make popular Christmas gifts because it’s easy to find holiday themed joke books and also because they are inexpensive and the perfect size for fitting in Christmas socks. Fiction and non-fiction books make good holiday presents, but they’re a. bit harder to pick out and are often inconveniently sized for yuletide hosiery.
Fortunately, most comic book fans will be fine with any funny book that you choose, but it’s a good idea to pay attention to which comic company they prefer such as DC or Marvel. (I used to be a big Harvey fan.) When it comes to joke book Christmas presents, it’s tough to go wrong with holiday themed joke books such as those in the Ralph Lane series of gift books. If you’ve already gotten all of those, you could also choose joke books based on the interest of the recipient. So some favorite humorous books include sports themed joke books and math themed joke books. If you’re buying a joke book for grandma or grandpa, you could find a retirement themed joke book. The choices are nearly infinite.
