There are so many lovely Christmas books for children that it's difficult to know where to start. We've included books here that have caught our eye - or that our own children are particularly fond of. One bit of advice we can give is not to worry too much about age recommendations for these books. Small children can enjoy even the books that are mostly text. Our two (nearly 5 now) love going through the pictures in the Tolkien Letters from Father Christmas book with a bit of explanation of what's going on in them. Sometimes it's nice to get to know a book gradually, over the years. And the simpler, picture-based books are equally suitable for younger and older children, we think. So, we've split this page into two sections - the first for books that are mostly pictures, the second for more wordy books. Plus an in-betweeny section for, well, in-betweeny kind of books. As this section just keeps on getting bigger, descriptions are now in little pop-up windows that you can get to by clicking on each picture. However, we know not everyone is keen on pop-ups - do let us know if this was a bad idea! There are 7 new books included for 2008. Picture books: Wenceslas, Harvey Slumfenberger's Christmas Present, A Christmas Story & Baboushka and the Three Kings. In-betweens: All the Way to Santa Claus & The Man Who Wore All his Clothes. And the more wordy Papa Panov's Special Day. Picture
