Harper Collins has been sending me more books than I can read but one that stands out is A Perfect Day written and illustrated by Carin Berger and I wanted to tell you about it on case you are looking for a holiday book for someone special.
The book jacket says it is for ages 4-8 but I know a 9-year-old (and a 50-cough-cough-year-old) who will enjoy sitting down and reading it together. Berger celebrates the joys of winter with simple lines of text, one or two per page, nestled neatly among her simple folk art collages ~ exactly the kind of book Sean and I enjoy when we snuggle up together to read and chat and read and chat.
Anyway, Merry Christmas y’all.

Hey Girlie!
I’ve missed you! Been thinking and praying for you guys all summer.
Since you last posted hubby and I found out that we are about to be first time Grandparents to a sweet little boy. Due in March.
I’ve been buying stuff! ha. Too much stuff. But books are one of the things I hope my grandson never has too many of.
I read to my little every night and most days. Giants,Giants,Giants was one of his favorite books. And! My least favorite. Oh I can still hear that book in my head.
I will have to send you a pic. of my lovely jewels
of the gifty from the Novica win. I’ve been slack in doing so.
Merry Christmas and many many Blessings to you and yours.
