Here are some picture books I'm adding to my Christmas Book Resource Page this year. I highlighted pictures from the books on yesterday's post, so if you couldn't guess which books the illustrations were from, I've revealed the book covers below...
 |
| #1 - Olivia with the Nutcracker from... |
#1 Olivia Helps With Christmas, written and illustrated by Ian Falconer. Everyone's favorite little Pig helps out Mommy and Daddy with Christmas - or does she?
 |
| #2 - St. Lucia, from... |
#2 The Story of Christmas, by Barbara Cooney, illustrations by Lorett Krupinski. Cooney relates traditions from around the world that have led us to the Christmas celebrations we have today.
 |
| #3 - Writing postcards, from.... |
#3 Aunt Olga's Christmas Postcards, by Kevin Major, illustrated by Bruce Roberts. (my review here)
 |
| #4 - Romantic Christmas scene, from... |
#4 A Star for Christmas, written and illustrated by Trisha Romance. If you love all things Scandinavian, you'll love her old fashioned Carl-Larsson-style illustrations. (read about the book here)
Thank you! I must look for the non-Olivia books! (I have the Olivia.) :o)
ReplyDeleteThey're all pretty unique books, but "Aunt Olga's Postcards" comes with a vintage postcard in an envelope on the inside of the back cover! A treasure, for sure! :)
DeleteOh, cool! I'll admit, that was the photo I was most curious about in yesterday's post. I loved the squiggly drawings with the old-fashioned Santa poster on the wall!
