"My absolute favorite Christmas book. There are no words, just scenes from a family as they prepare for Christmas. We watch them get a tree, decorate, send cards, open presents, and more!"
"This book with pictures describes our families Christmas experiece completely. I highly recommend it. It can be enjoyed by any age person because it is the pictures that capture the feelings of Christmas."
"There's something about the way Spier can tell a story so well without any words at all. This beautiful picture book tells the whole arcing story of a family's Christmas, from shopping for presents, to the pets knocking over tree ornaments in the middle of the night, through Christmas morning, and on to the discarded tree and crumpled up wrappings after the holiday, all without a single word. It was always one of my favorites as a kid, and I still pull it out every Christmas."
"I love this book - a wordless celebration of Christmas in a New England setting. The spread where the parents are sitting alone after cleaning up the dinner and the day, tired but satisfied, just summed up how I felt after I pulled off another one for my guys. My kids liked this book very much as well - but sometimes I think I loved this one and Rain on a whole other level..."
