Holiday in Trees: Christmastide is part of a series of children's books following the lives of woodland creatures. It is from the perspective of the parents, describing holiday traditions. My favorite part of this book was the artwork. It's very nostalgic and reminds me of books I read as a child; it also gives Little Bear vibes, if you've read that, which is refreshing in comparison to modern children art styles in my opinion. It's beautiful and cozy, and I can imagine a child reading the book would feel the same way.
Full disclosure, I don't read many children's stories, so take this with a grain of salt. The story is a little short in length, and I wouldn't say there's an overarching plot here, but that's not necessarily a downside if your kiddos like those kinds of stories. This book would be good to read to children around the winter time. It could be a good conversation starter for families regarding holiday traditions.
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book.
I very much liked the illustrations in this storybook. They are very sweet and appealing. To me, they are the best part of this title.
The story itself is a simple one about an animal community celebrating Christmas. My favorite part was how presents were found-they were located after finding a series of notes. This seems like an idea that many families could try.
This might be an addition to a family’s collection of holiday stories for children. It is not unique but it does get into the spirit of the season.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Atmosphere Press for this title. All opinions are my own.
I received an ARC of this children's book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This is a cute book. The pictures are adorable!
This Christmas book was quite charming. It's obviously "home-made" and not professional-looking like they do in traditional publishing, but I mean it in the sweetest sense. It clearly comes from the heart and looks and feels authentic, like some kind of family craft book you reread every year as a tradition. A precious labour of love. Very cute artwork!
