Do you need a Christmas book to read to the younger ones in your life? Or perhaps you need one that takes places during a war. If either is true, check out today’s story.
One Splendid Tree by Marilyn Helmer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
While I found the illustrations a little strange for my liking, the story was sweet. No the real reason for Christmas isn’t mentioned, but I love how one plant and two children inspire an entire apartment to celebrate Christmas even during a war.
What sort of picture book do you enjoy? Do you like realistic looking pictures or does it matter? Have you found a Christmas picture book that you like the story but aren’t as fond of the illustrations?
