Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who is fond of classic literature, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Classic Literature Book Set: Consider gifting him a box set of classic literature books by authors like Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, or Leo Tolstoy. You can either choose his favorite author or compile a selection of novels that he hasn't read yet.

2. Personalized Bookplates: Encourage your son's love for classic literature by gifting him personalized bookplates. These can be customized with his name or initials and can be placed in the books he already owns or any new additions to his collection.

3. Antique Books: If you're looking for a unique and sentimental gift, consider finding an antique edition of his favorite classic novel. Look for a first edition or a beautifully bound copy that would make a prized addition to his bookshelf.

4. Literary-themed Clothing or Accessories: Show your son's love for classic literature by gifting him clothing or accessories inspired by his favorite novels. Look for t-shirts, hoodies, or tote bags featuring quotes or book cover designs. Alternatively, you can explore jewelry inspired by famous literary works.

5. Literary Map: Consider gifting your son a literary map that showcases important locations from classic novels. These maps can be framed or used as posters, and they often include iconic places like Sherlock Holmes' Baker Street or Jane Eyre's Thornfield Hall.

6. Writing Journal: If your son is interested in writing or analyzing literature, a high-quality writing journal would be a thoughtful gift. Look for one with a classic design or featuring famous quotes from literary works on its cover.

7. Subscription to a Book Club: Keep your son engaged with classic literature by subscribing him to a book club that focuses on these types of books. Look for a club that curates monthly or quarterly boxes, including lesser-known classics or highly acclaimed literature.

8. Tickets to Literary Events: Check for any literary festivals, book signings, or author talks in your area and surprise your son with tickets. Attending these events will give him the opportunity to hear from his favorite authors and interact with like-minded individuals.

9. Literature-inspired Artwork: Look for artwork or prints that depict scenes from classic novels or illustrations inspired by famous characters. This could be a beautiful addition to his room or a study area.

10. Personalized Reading Lamp: Enhance his reading experience with a personalized reading lamp. You can have his initials engraved on the base or choose a lamp inspired by classic designs.

Remember, the most important aspect of gift-giving is showing that you understand and support his interests. By considering his love for classic literature, you can find a Christmas gift that will be both meaningful and personal.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
