Little Star, written by Anthony DeStefano and illustrated by Mark Elliott (WaterBrook, 2010), tells the story of the Christmas star.  This gentle picture book answers the question so many children ask, “Where is the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Move over Beatrix Potter because Little Rabbit is one cute bunny.   I just finished Little Rabbit Goes to School (Peachtree, 2004) and really for me, it&#8217;s all about the illustrations.  The story&#8217;s cute, yes, but this is a book I&#8217;d get for the illustrations.  The Little Rabbit books tell about typical joys and fears of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  In an ideal world, we&#8217;d all have hours to sit on the couch reading books to our children.  In an ideal world, we&#8217;d also have children who are always cheerful and obedient and never have problems with sleeping through the night, toilet-training, wrecking the car, or getting a full-ride scholarship to college either.  But [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, just can’t resist doing a few more Christmas books.  These are some unique ones I’m partial to.   Winter Lights: A Season in Poems &#38; Quilts (by Anna Grossnickle Hines.  Greenwillow, 2005).  Stunning contemporary quilts illustrate this book, most of them in intense, vivid colors and bold patterns that really appeal to kids and adults [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lemony Snicket&#8217;s picture book, The Lump of Coal (HarperCollins, 2008), has been released for Christmas.  Christmas is a time of miracles, and as Lemony Snicket says, “Miracles are like pimples, because once you start looking for them you find more than you ever dreamed you’d see.”  (The book is worth buying for that sentence alone.)  Although [...]]]></description>
