Bought this book for my 21 month old to help introduce him to the idea of Christmas. This book has beautiful pictures, and a very thoughtful, simplistic storyline about friends wanting to enjoy the holiday together, making each other homemade xmas gifts, and a brief sneak peak of Santa stopping by at night. It was definitely a holiday favorite!

This really is a cute book. Christmas preparations, animal friends, and a heartwarming story, what's not to love?! It's a board book that I'd recommend for toddlers (it's a little long for babies unless your baby likes longer books)!

I’m giving it 4 stars because the title of the product was misleading, for me, saying that is was a hardcover. I was in a hurry and purchased it thinking that it was a hard cover with paper pages inside and not a board book. But, when you are not in a hurry, you will see that the description (as I read after I had given the gift) says that it is a 6x6 board book. I love Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman’s illustrations. The book came in good condition and in a timely manner.

I purchased this book online for my daughter for Christmas. It looked cute and I saw it had good reviews. After it arrived, I read it and I absolutely love it! It is such a cute book and I'm super excited to read it to my daughter. I definitely see why it got good reviews and I now want to purchase the other one by this author that someone had mentioned. I also ordered this book to give as gifts to our other baby & kid family members.
