I'm not kidding when I say that those two books are probably our all-time favorite -- which is really saying something, if you knew how many children's books we own. They are, in my opinion, absolutely perfect in every way.
Love these ❤️ I’ve read The Box of Delights pretty much every year since I was a child and recently upgraded my copy to a gorgeous Folio Society edition to make it even more special. I also got Santa’s First Christmas out of the library for my 3 year old the other day and love it so much I think I’ll have to get our own copy…the bit where Santa opens his 10 identical fishing rods and says “I love all of them” nearly made me weep! Just adorable
I promised myself I wouldn’t buy anymore Christmas books this year but now I have to 😂
You do. You really do 😉
Thank you for this edition!! 🎅🏼 Just placed a hold at the library for “Santa’s First Christmas” per your rec! I’m sure my family will love it.
This is SUCH a fun list — a great reminder to me to put in my hold requests at the library. Thanks for introducing me to a few new ones ❤️
I'm so glad!
Ordering the Box of Delights…for myself…🎄
I love it!
😆 📕
These are just lovely! I'm going to be seeking out Grimes poetry to begin... Thank you!
It's so, so lovely -- hope you enjoy!
These all look simply magical. And I totally agree about Mac Barnett hehe.
Your timing was perfect! I could still get some snapped up at the library!
That's what I was aiming for!
We've absolutely loved Feast For 10 getting ready for Thanksgiving, so I will be acquiring Christmas for 10 next :)

This is perfect timing, just working on our Christmas wishlists and library requests!
Yay!

Agreed — it’s so sweet and touching.
