The library and bookstore shelves have been looking very festive for quite a while now. Many are filled with classics we still adore… A Christmas Carol, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, The Polar Express, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and T’was the Night Before Christmas, to name a few. But right up front you’ll find the pick of the season… the brand-new releases. Browse the titles. Drink in the artwork. Taste the flavor of the text. I bet you’ll go home with one or two new favorites this year.
Happy Reading!
Below are six new picture books I summarized for you, along with a few fun activities you can do with your little readers for each story. Be sure you click on the title of each one for the link to that page.

Some great picks. My library doesn’t have DEAR SANTA, LOVE, RACHAEL ROSENSTEIN yet. I saw the author on the TODAY SHOW and wanted to review the book, but couldn’t get it in time. I checked out some older Christmas books, recently just to read them. The ones you mentioned are such classics. Like the new ones too. Merry Christmas!

I hope you like it when you do get it, Pat. There was one line I didn’t care for, but overall a nice story. Can’t wait to hear your opinion!
