The other day I posted a review of three out of the five Christmas themed books I recently received from Candlewick Press, Today I will be sharing the review of the final two with you. All five of the books I received are fantastic books and all make a great gift idea for the holidays. All five can be purchased through Amazon or at Barnes & Nobles.
Pick A Pine Tree - Written by Patricia Toht & Illustrated by Jarvis, it is forty pages long and retails for $16.99 it is a hardcover book. This is a book about a family that goes to a Christmas tree lot to pick out their tree and the decorating day they have with family & friends to get ready for the holidays. It has colorful illustrations and the book is a cute read, although I don't think it would be one that would be in our yearly Christmas book reading box it seems to better suit younger children close to toddler age.
A Christmas For Bear - Written by Bonny Becker & Illustrated by Kady MacDonald Denton, it is forty-eight pages long and retails for $16.99 this is also a hard cover book. This is a book about a bear who had never celebrated Christmas before but decided he wanted to and agreed to host a small party for him and his friend mouse. Through the book bear seems a little stern, to the point and not sure how a Christmas party works but through the book you find he had planned a big surprise for his little mouse friend and mouse has planned a surprise for bear as well and it ended off on a very happy note.
