We are less than two weeks away from Christmas.
It’s hard to believe! I still have so much to do this year.
Shopping to finish. Cookies to bake.
Gifts to make and traditions to start.
Today we’re taking AG to see Santa, I have a feeling this year will be our screaming picture.
We’re also going to look at Christmas lights tonight.
I’m sure she will be in awe of the experience. I can’t wait!
I’ve been buying Christmas books here and there for AG.
She loves board books and Santa right now.
During the day, she always has a book near by.
It makes the reading teacher in me very happy!
Every year hubs and I buy AG a special book for Christmas.
We keep it separate from her “play” and daily read books.
We write her a note inside along with the year, as a keepsake.
When she’s older, she’ll be able to pass them on and share them with her children.
This year we bought her Christmas in Texas, perfect for our first year here!
Here is a list of my favorite Christmas books to read.
Many of them were read in the classroom when I was a teacher.
Some are new finds and favorites.
Rudolf the Rednosed Reindeer / The Biggest Snowman Ever / What is Christmas?

One of my all time favorite Christmas books is Prancer. It will be in our girls Christmas eve package along with her PJs, a movie, hot cocoa (that she wont drink) and a snack. A perfect night after Christmas eve service!
I vividly remember my mother reading Jan Brett books to me around Christmas as a kid. They have beautiful illustrations and I loved them. You can check them all out here: http://www.amazon.com/Jan-Brett/e/B0034P0KM6
LOVE this list! So many classics! My all time favorite is called Santa Mouse, it's super old school but was my favorite growing up.
Great list and great idea. I buy my girls Christmas books every year as well. When she gets older 'the longest Christmas list ever' is a good one. Teaches them about the spirit of the season vs only gift getting.
What a great idea.. I need to get my neices and nephew some of these books so they will have them for next year.. Christmas books are the BEST!
So many great books!! We are in full blown Christmas book mode right now too! 🙂
Love several of these books 🙂
