“Peppa Pig and the Lost Christmas List” Hardcover Book Review and Giveaway!!!

Books, Glorious Books!  How we all love them in this family!  Christmas time brings many special holiday themed books with favorite characters.  Peppa Pig and the Lost Christmas List is a lovely holiday story about how Peppa and her brother help Santa remember who everything is for when he accidentally loses the Christmas List on top of their roof.  Peppa also helps Santa find a more direct and much easier way out of the house.

It’s almost Christmas, and Peppa Pig and her little brother, George, are mailing their letters to Santa. All of Peppa’s friends are there, too, and each one tells Peppa the special gift on their list. Peppa is excited to help Daddy Pig and Mummy Pig pick out and decorate their enormous tree, and she can’t wait for the big day to arrive. But little does she know that a surprise is in store on Christmas Eve, and that she may play a part in saving the day!

Peppa is the endearing star of PEPPA PIG — a BAFTA-winning preschool TV series that has been a long-running success in the U.K. and is now winning devoted fans in the U.S. with daily showings on Nick Jr. Peppa and her little brother, her daddy, her mummy, and her many friends arrive at Candlewick just in time for the holiday season, poised for much muddy puddle jumping and more new adventures to come.

Welcome the U.K.’s muddy-puddle-jumping sensation! The beloved, award-winning Peppa Pig hops from screen to page in her first book with Candlewick.

“The Adventures of Little Nutbrown Hare” Hardcover Book Review & Giveaway!!!

We have been fans of Little and Big Nutbrown Hare since I can remember.  There used to be the sweetest gift store in our town that had the most beautiful selection of books and the stuffed characters then went along with them.  That was where I found the most unique Big and Little Nutbrown Hare before our son Ethan was born.

One of my childrens’ favorite books is Guess How Much I Love You, so when I received The Adventures of Little Nutbrown Hare by  Sam McBratney for review, I could not wait to share it with them.  They were grinning from ear to ear just seeing the cover and sat wide-eyed, with their best listening ears as I read to them the great adventures that Little Nutbrown Hare had.  Full of fun and nature Little and Big Nutbrown Hare celebrate their environment every day; playing hide and seek in a favorite tree that was knocked down in a storm, blowing dandelions on Cloudy Mountain, adventures in the Far Field and going to one of the best places of all…Home!
