Endorsements
We love this story for our 3 year old. It brings all the Christmas traditions he sees around him (Santa, baking, Christmas tree, carols, etc) and makes it clear that those things are nice, but Jesus is the real reason we celebrate Christmas day. Great conversation starter!

The book is a sweet way to keep the true meaning of Christmas in children's minds. It's colorful, very durable (board), and uses fun illustrations that aren't babyish.
