Description

A festive read-aloud brimming with all the joy and excitement of Christmastime — beginning, of course, with picking out a tree! Part of the magic of the Christmas season stems from the traditions that families and friends take part in every year: hanging up stockings; putting lights in the windows; and, one of the most important of all, picking out and taking home the Christmas tree. With style and warmth, debut author Patricia Toht and Jarvis, the author- illustrator of Alan’s Big, Scary Teeth, evoke all the rituals of decorating the tree — digging out boxes jam-packed with ornaments and tree trimmings, stringing tinsel, and, at long last, turning on those twinkling lights. Joyously drawn and rhythmically written, this celebration of family, friends, and the holiday season is as merry as the tradition it depicts. Read more

  • Nice Lilting Rhythmic Poetic Children's Book All About Decorating the Christmas tree.
"Pick A Pine Tree" by Patrica Toht and illustrated by Jarvis is a small Children's Lilting Rhythmic Poetic Christmas book which measures 7 1/2 inches by 8 3/4 inches and has 32 pages. Each page is printed on heavy paper almost like card stock which is a real plus because children will not tear the pages as quickly. Each page is a full page full color illustration with only one line of poetry text on each page. The artist's illustrations center in on the most important part in the line of poetry on each page. The poem is all about finding a Christmas tree and all the preparations needed to make the tree a truly great finished decorated tree. I like that the author encourages readers to call their friends and relatives to help decorate their Christmas tree and have a tree decorating party. After reading 30 pages of simple rhyming poetic words, the reader is treated to an extra special surprise at the end of the book - a beautiful two page pop up of a multi tiered fully decorated Christmas Tree. Because the story is written in simple lilting rhythmic style, this book should be read out loud. The book would make an excellent read aloud in lower elementary classrooms and also for all your young children. It would be neat to read this story out loud as you gather with your family and friends to decorate your Christmas tree. ... show more

  • Perfect for our Christmas Collection
Format: Hardcover
This Christmas book focuses on the process of getting and decorating a tree. My 2 year old loves it and I enjoy the beautiful illustrations, the diversity included in the book, and the short lines on each page. Santa plays a very minor role: he's mentioned as part of the tree decorations, one character is pictured wearing a Santa hat, and the final page shows Santa delivering presents inside the house. Since this book is all about the tree-trimming tradition, it's a great addition to your library and will stand apart from many other Christmas books that repeat themes. As other reviewers have mentioned, in some places the poetry is a bit forced or changes meter, but I give this book 5 stars anyway. We'll be reading this book for years! ... show more

  • Beautiful, future classic in our home
Format: Hardcover
We're suckers for a good Christmas book around here, and this one was the perfect addition to our collection! Beautiful illustrations, a good rhyme pattern, kept my 16 month old's attention (though he's been doing well with "paper" books for months, so it's probably better suited to ages 2+). The diverse characters matched all of my son's little friends, which I'm grateful for. I love that it feels vintage-y, like a book that I could have read every Christmas growing up, even though it's "new". Already excited to pull it back out in the years to come and have it be a Christmas classic in our home. ... show more

  • Beautiful words and illustrations!
Format: Hardcover
There's nothing like a book filled with fun rhyming patterns, and this book has it all! The sing song text that celebrates a tradition of picking the perfect Christmas tree and decorating it with family makes this a great read aloud for a classroom or a night time family story. The illustrations are beautiful, represent families of all shades of color and enjoying time with each other, and keep my kids engaged from the very first page to the very last page! ... show more
