No gift I buy a child is complete without a book, it’s a compulsion! I have always loved the idea of buying a Christmas themed book to go with Christmas gifts. Especially for my children, something I can curl up and read with them on Christmas night. Unless I have pulled them out early to read it in the lead up to Christmas that is.
Just Right is a beautiful Christmas book written by Birdie Black and illustrated by Rosalind Beardshaw, perfect to curl up with and read to your children Christmas night.
A story that teaches about the joy of Christmas being in the giving and it’s not the size and expense of the present but the love and thought that’s gone into it. A heartwarming tale of one roll of red Christmassy cloth and how many different presents it can make, how many brands of Christmas joy it can bring.
The illustrations are bright and eye-catching but just in case that’s not enough to enthrall the younger reader there are some cute little animals that will be sure to amuse. And, in my house, the snow and the forest.
There is enough repetition that by the end of the book the kids can read along with you but it’s still fresh enough to keep their attention.
Just Right is published by Nosy Crow in London, a fabulous new independent publisher of children’s books. It has an RRP of $22.99 and is available from all good bookstores. The ISBN is 978-0-85763-030-8 and the book is recommended for 3+.
