Art, design, food, photography, gardening and pop culture -- Chronicle Books publishes books worth gifting and owning. They offer a large selection of books and gifts for adults, teens and young children. My favorite area to browse is their awesome children's book division!
Right now Chronicle Books is sponsoring Celebrate the Haul-idays, a fun blog promotion. One blogger and a blog commenter will win a set of books valued up to $500. Let's just say that making book wish lists is one of my favorite things to do, so I couldn't resist this challenge!
