One Small Donkey


One Small Donkey by Dandi Daley Mackall tells the Christmas story from a donkey's point of view. The illustrations are absolutely adorable. However, I was not totally impressed with the way the story is told. It does rhyme, but I think the story could have had more substance. My 2.5 year old does like the pictures however. Overall, I think it's a sweet Christmas story to add to your collection, but I wouldn't consider it a must have.

Itsy Bitsy Christmas


Itsy Bitsy Christmas is a sweet Christmas story about the excitement the little mice (Itsy and Bitsy) experience as they look for the King coming to Bethlehem. This board book is a great little book to teach little ones about how Jesus comes for everyone, no matter your size. I think Max Lucado could have chosen better names for the mice... but otherwise, it's very well illustrated with a cute theme. Will definitely read multiple times with my toddler this Christmas season!

Book Review: Night Night Farm


Night Night Farm by Amy Parker is a very cute board book that goes through the bedtime routine with all the animals in the farm. With rhymes and sweet illustrations, our toddler loves this book and has asked to read it multiple times each night. Our toddler loves identifying the animals and the sounds each animal makes. I would recommend this book for all little ones. Parents will enjoy reading the short bedtime story with their little ones. The board book is good quality and perfect for little hands.

Book Review: Great Stories of the Bible



This is a great collection of Bible stories. Even though my little one doesn't read yet, it's perfect for bedtime. The book is a nice hard cover, big font, and easy to read. My 2.5 year old carries her "Bible" around and likes to look at the pictures. This will be a good that will grow with her when she starts reading. Even though this book is intended for readers, I think it's still a great for bedtime stories.
