Holiday books from CandleWick Press!

While a few of these books are more suited for the holiday season, it is never too late to read a good book. Today I wanted to share an assortment of books with you that I got from CandleWick Press that are great for Kindergarten and older. I will also be sharing an assortment of non-holiday related books that are perfect for any time of the year.

Dinosaur Christmas (Retail $16.99) - This cute book is part of a series about dinosaurs, in this book they are on a mission to help save Christmas by helping Santa out of a snowstorm that has caused his sleigh to get stuck in the snow. Will the Dinosaurs be able to help Santa get his sleigh out in time for Christmas? You'll have to read this fun adventure to find out. 

Gigantosaurus: The Holiday Party (Retail $5.99) - On the shortest day of the year (winter solstice) most of the dinosaurs are feeling the winter blues and are all feeling down so Tiny decides to throw a last minute holiday party to cheer everyone up. Tiny manages to get everything together for the party in the small amount of time that they have and it really helps cheer everyone up. This is a cute holiday book, it is short and sweet perfect for a beginner reader plus it comes with Stickers!

Mouse's Night Before Christmas (Retail $17.99) - It was the night before Christmas and everyone was sleeping except for a little mouse who lives in the grandfather clock. If you are a fan of stories where cute little creatures help Santa deliver holiday presents then this book is for you. The cute little mouse helps Santa deliver presents and in the end his Christmas wish of having a friend comes true so he no longer feels like a lonely little mouse. We thought this was a adorable book and we enjoyed the holiday story.

Christmas Is Joy (Retail $14.99) - This is a very sweet and short story, it is almost more of a long poem or at least that is what it reminded me of. This book is from the point of view of two reindeer and their love of Christmas. I think this book is perfect for Kindergarten and first grade.

Paper Peek Animals (Retail $14.99) - This nifty little book features animal cut outs and patterned paper behind the animal that features a number of animals found in that region of the world. For example the North America cut out below shows skunks, moose, beavers, foxes and more. I thought this was a neat way to showcase to kids the different animals around the world and where they can be located. This book is recommended for ages 0-3. 

This Is A Book Of Shapes (Retail $8.99) - This is another great learning book for children age 0-3, it helps introduce them to new shapes along with some fun colors and it has a non-shape related page or two to keep the book interesting and fun.

My Favorite Color (Retail $15.99) - I really enjoyed this fun and colorful book. This board book features a number of pages with dozens of colored squares some of which are cut out windows, each window showcases a different color. On each page you'll find one color range, for example all blues will be on a page and the following page will have all greens. Having each small sheet thin and see though makes it to where you can lay the colors over each other to create new colors, it is a great way for kids to learn dozens of new colors and shades. Some of the colors in this book I'd love to have as paint! 

See The Cat: Three Stories About A Dog (Retail $8.99) - This is a great book for my son who is in second grade, the book is long enough to keep him engaged and the stories are entertaining. While at the same time the story isn't overly long so your child won't get distracted or lost reading the book. Each story is a fun adventure for the dog and it has some cute illustrations to go along with each story. 

Peppa Pig & The Day Of Giving Thanks (Retail $12.99) - It isn't every day that you find a Thanksgiving related children's book so it is neat when you do come across one. This book features a favorite character of many children - Peppa Pig! My kids aren't a big fan of Peppa Pig as they are a bit older now (7 & 11) but we still thought this was a fun book. As an added bonus if you take off the book sleeve cover there is a poster on the inside that your child can color in and have fun with. 

The Hanukkah Magic of Nate Gadol (Retail $19.99) - This book has some absolutely gorgeous illustrations through out it, many features found through out the pages have been embossed with gold or silver coloring which really makes the page pop. I tried to get a good photo to show how much it sparkles but it was hard trying to capture how pretty it looks in person. This is a really neat book that is perfect for young kids who celebrate Hanukkah or children who are interested in learning more about the holiday. 

Candlewick Press sells all of these fantastic books along with hundreds of others that are perfect for all holidays and occasions, they will have pretty much any category or subject you are looking for. Most of the books I shared today are geared more towards children under the age of ten, however I will be making a post soon with some great books for older children (and even adults!). 

What are some of your favorite children's books? Would your children enjoy any of the books I shared here with you today?
