1. Mistletoe: A Christmas Story – A sweet tale about a little mouse who knits her way into the true meaning of friendship and giving.
2. Last Stop on the Reindeer Express – This story truly touched me, and it would be especially meaningful if you’re part of a family that can’t all be together on Christmas.
3. 12 Days of Christmas (The Christmas Choir) – A gorgeously illustrated take on the classic.
4. Christmas Train – You can read this as a traditional book, but it also folds out into one long cardboard train that’s fun to play with!
5. When Santa Was a Baby – A hilarious and heartwarming peek at Santa’s early years and how he became the jolly man we know today. I appreciated the parents’ perspective in this one!
6. Waltz of the Snowflakes – A little girl discovers the magic of attending The Nutcracker ballet with her mom. The illustrations in this wordless book take my breath away.
