Christmas Picture Books


Happy Release Week for Hooray, It's Three Kings Day .


🎄

I miss how we used to build a tiny village under the tree with flowing water and include all the important nativity figures.


🎁

I always loved the 3 kings and always remembered celebrating Day 6 of January with our Portuguese King Cake, which is a very tasty cake with fruit.


Like Santa leaves gifts on the 24th (December) night, the Kings leave on the 5th (January).



❤️

This book explains well what Kings Day is and even includes extra info at the end with a glossary.

👉A happy Merry Christmas Zoo is a beautiful, well-illustrated picture book filled with detail and holiday joy.


👉 title with texture on the cover, pages well designed, and text readable


👉 Creative Christmas at the zoo for all the animals


Amazing pages with artwork, work, and active verbs for each animal eg: Chimpanzees bounce, Leopards leap-pounce.


👉 the zoo staff celebrate with the animals in many zoos of our planet. Zookeepers work with veterinarians and nutritionists to come up with the healthiest and best gifts


🥰If you would like to participate, contact your local zoo and check what they need (volunteers, materials)






Do you know this series? 12 Elves in different states? This is a fun one. This one is in Georgia, the Peach State.


The elves visit iconic landmarks, and we get a general idea of each state. The snow on the cover has a sparkling texture. Fun. Very fun double-page illustrations. So that's where the Coca-Cola museum is. Learned something today.



This makes me want to illustrate our neighborhood/or street/or school as a book by having the kids contribute with things that are relevant to describe their home.


@familiusbooksFun elves thank you for the copy.



5 🌟 THE WONDERFUL ONCE


Thank you, artist and author, for the diversity in the artwork. We have a great representation of different races. A very classical Christmas amazing story, of sharing, and joy in a season of love and taking care of each other.


This one has more text than the other series, and it's a great book to collect. The Spirit of Giving is an amazing character. I love the magic realism of this book. She takes Lucas to see the elves and their workshop and presents him to the reindeer to make his dream come true: to give every child a toy. What's his name? Lucas Astan... Santa Claus. Marvelous.


A Wonderful Once is an award-winning story. Appeals to all ages. @thewonderfulonce
