(Debby Atwell). I was nearly brought to tears by this beautiful picture book about the essential aspect of the holidays and our daily lives: opening our lives and homes to others.

Wink: The Ninja Who Wanted to Be Noticed (J. C. Phillipps ). This book captures the essence of being an individual. Wink has two influences and two passions in his life that at first appear incongruent. He finds a way to incorporate both in a way that brings him fulfillment and makes his mentors proud.

I read the first book in this series. I would love the rest of them. There is good character development and strong family/friendship ties with the characters.
7. The Book Shop Dog (Cynthia Rylant). I shared a special reading moment with my son with this book. It is a beautiful story of love, community, and man’s best friend.
8. Calico series (Karma Wilson). There are no libraries in my area that carry these books. I would love to get my hands on them. They are the only books by Karma Wilson I have not read yet.
9. The Dinosaurs Night Before Christmas
(Anne Meucke). My kids and I loved reading this version of the popular poem. The story is creative and entertaining while the illustrations are vibrant and energetic.
