If you are shopping for a little one, I have some Christmas board books to share with you today.
First I have a Veggie Tales board book called Joy to the World by Pamela Kennedy.
About the book:
Discover the true meaning of Christmas with beloved VeggieTales characters and a holiday story little ones will love.
Welcome to the Veggie Christmas Show! Little ones will be captivated by a Christmas extravaganza that starts with a guitar solo by Larry and ends with a Veggie reenactment of the first Christmas night. With cheerful hearts and spirits, the Veggies remind others of the simple joy of Christmas. This lighthearted book is perfect for reading together during the festive holiday season.My thoughts:
The Veggies are putting on a talent show. Little children (toddler aged) will enjoy the fun smiling vegetables and their talent show acts.

The book ends with the Nativity scene to remind readers of the reason of the season and the joy we have because of Jesus.
Get this book if you or your child are fans of VeggieTales!

About the book:

Expertly crafted for the attention span of toddlers, this simple book tells the biblical story of Christmas—from the Annunciation to the birth of Jesus and the arrival of the wise men. The story also helps little listeners understand the connection between the first Christmas and today's celebrations and traditions. With bright illustrations and a toddler-friendly length of about 200 words, this book is an age-appropriate way to introduce the story of the Nativity. A perfect addition for Christmas stockings!
My thoughts:
This is a board book so it is appropriate for toddler age children. The author connects the gifts we exchange to the gifts brought to Jesus. I am not in 100% agreement on the accuracy of this telling of the Christmas story compared to the Bible. But it is appropriate for toddlers. It is short enough that it will hold their attention and it can lead to discussions with parents about baby Jesus. I must emphasize this is a very basic telling of the Nativity Story.

I received these books from Hachette Group for my honest review. Thank you.
