Christmas Picture Book Review: Little Angel's Christmas Son by Kerstin Hau

One little angel wonders what type of angel they are, so they try out different things until they discover their true purpose on Christmas Eve.
Little Angel's Christmas Song by Kerstin Hau is a beautifully told, stunningly illustrated story of an angel seeking their purpose. The little angel knows that every angel is created with a special purpose, but theirs seems to elude them. They try and try, but nothing seems to work right, until the sounds of bells ring in the air on Christmas Eve.
After reading two humorous children's titles in a row, stepping back to approach a touching, heartwarming story like Little Angel's Christmas Song was such a treasure. The folk-inspired artwork by Sela Marlin Soganci is just as lovely and wonderful as the story by Hau.
Young readers ages 4 to 8 will enjoy following along this little angel's journey to find its special and meaningful purpose.

Christmas Picture Book Review: Never Let A Unicorn Meet A Reindeer! by Diane Alber

If you are looking for an outrageously funny Christmas story to share with the young people in your life, grab a copy of Never Let A Unicorn Meet A Reindeer! written and illustrated by Diane Alber.
When a girl asks for a reindeer to visit her summer birthday party, chaos ensues. After all, Santa has warned her not to let her unicorn meet a reindeer, so what should she expect when it happens? Unicorn and reindeer clash, but they rise to the occasion when Santa needs help on Christmas Eve.
I applaud an author who has such creativity. Alber has a series of Unicorn books that are so playful and silly that it's no wonder they are so popular. Also a talented artist, her black and white illustrations with spots of color are instantly recognizable. Love the expression on the girl's face on the front cover.
This is a modern and unique twist on a familiar Christmas story that will delight young readers and have them laughing aloud. Such a fun book!
