A lovely edition and an ideal picture flat format for the little ones to enjoy.

A few words on each page are highlighted in red and green ink the rest is in black. For example on the first page the highlighted words are Twas - Mouse - Saint Nicholas.

I purchased the book at the beginning of December and as a childminder found it brillant, we made lots of the things in there, and a one of our favourites was the Snowmen paperchain which even my 12 and 9 year children really enjoyed designing and colouring. A book for all ages.

The Enchanted Horse (Young Lions Storybook)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Christmas Books
by: Magdalen Nabb

August 06, 2001
I read this book with my eight-year-old daughter and we were both delighted. She'd plead with me to read another chapter, then another, and I found it hard to resist! There was real substance in the story, and it was told with imagination and wisdom that feeds the mind and heart. A superb children's book I would recommend to anyone.

Christmas Art Ideas (Art Skills)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Christmas Books
by: Fiona Watt

October 29, 2004
This book is full of colourful pictures and contains some great ideas for cards, wrapping, pictures, baubles, tree decorations and more. I've tried most of these out with my Year 4 class and they have found the step-by-step instuctions easy to follow with minimal adult support - just what a busy teacher wants in the run up to Christmas. Highly recommended.

The Night Before Christmas (Pop-up book)

This is just a beautiful piece of work. Must confess we haven't had the heart to let our 2 and half years old play with it, though... It'd be a real shame if it got damaged!

Father Christmas Goes on Holiday (Picture Puffin)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Christmas Books
by: Raymond Briggs

September 29, 1977
As a teacher of English as a foreign language (in Portugal), I was a bit disappointed with 'Father Christmas Goes on Holiday'... It is not advisable for storytelling; some drawings are too tiny, as well as the words on the speech bubbles. Besides, I don't think the plot will appeal to young children and the kind of humour that is used is, in my personal opinion, a bit far-fetched... If you're looking for a great Christmas book, with plenty of surprises, flaps, etc., then you'd rather go for 'Dear Santa', by Rod Campbell, which is certainly a better option!
