Reviews
'Colorful illustrations and simple words in this utterly charming story introduce babies and toddlers to the joy of preparing for Christmas Ideal and unreservedly recommended.' -- Midwest Book Review 'Kwant's art is the star of this simple story. Rendered in soft colored pencil or oil pastels, the scenes beautifully evoke the playful joy of decorating a tree.' -- Kirkus Reviews 'The illustrations have a soft crayon-like texture and are mainly in Christmas hues of blue, green, gold and red. A nice addition to the Pip the Gnome series and holiday stories.' -- Youth Services Book Review
