Apple MacBook Air
The Apple MacBook Air is the perfect gift if you want to go above and beyond. This laptop is the number one bestselling on Amazon and received four and a half out of five stars. This newest version is Apple's thinnest design and only weighs a little over five pounds making it easy to take anywhere.
The laptop has built in FaceTime for video chat, two USB ports, built in stereo speakers, and a full size keyboard with backlighting. There have been a few complaints of the fan being loud after extended use, but this is definitely one of the top laptops and the Macbook Air would make a great Christmas present.

The Book Thief
A book is always a good present for a reader, and The Book Thief would be a great gift this Christmas. A simple gift at less than ten dollars this book will captivate its reader. The Book Thief is by Markus Zusak and is one of the bestselling books on Amazon.
With four and a half stars, this book is a keeper and comes in many different formats from hard cover to e-book. This book tells us of a foster girl named Liesel Meminger who lives in Germany during World War two.
This girl finds that stealing books makes her life worthwhile and shares them with everyone, including the Jewish man that hides in her basement. For ages twelve and up this book will touch your soul and captivate your attention.
Some reviews say it is more of a teen read, but The Book Thief can be enjoyed by everyone and would make a great Christmas gift.
