  • Perfect for Christmas traditions
Format: Hardcover
I love this book so much. Growing up my dad would pick out 3-5 books and display them and then let us pick one to read on Christmas Eve so of course when I had a daughter I wanted to have the same books for her to read on Christmas Eve. The art in this book is lovely and rich. It just feels like Christmas and the winter time. The pages are buttery and thick. Overall I highly recommend this book for family traditions during the holidays. It terms of reading allowed the font size is around a 14 (see photo) and the story itself is not too long. The pages are big and bright so perfect for kids to see while you are reading. ... show more

  • A must-have childhood book for Christmas!
Format: Hardcover
As a kid, my mom and I would watch The Polar Express movie every year for Christmas. The movie always brings a tear to my eye. When I got pregnant with my son, I knew we had to get The Polar Express in a book to read with him on Christmas Eve. I got this and the classic ‘The Night Before Christmas’ book. The artwork in this book is fantastic, classic and full of the Christmas vibe. I got emotional going through it upon its arrival, imagining reading it to my son. I can’t wait for Christmas, to bring all the joy to life for my son and share bits of my childhood with him! Get this book! ... show more

  • Must-have book for grandchildren at Christmas
Format: Hardcover
Classic story with beautiful pictures. Not several for my grandchildren to take on our Polar Express train ride in Palestine, Texas.

  • Classic Book
Format: Hardcover
The book is a classic. The art is so nostalgic and I am excited to read this with my little one. It does come with an ornament, but it is made of super thin plastic, almost like cardboard. It is not good quality and isn't anything special. It is just an extra though, so it doesn't take away from the book or the purchase itself. ... show more

  • A classic, beautiful children’s book
Format: Hardcover
What can I say? It’s a classic. I got this for my daughter for her third Christmas. She loved flipping through the pages and the paper was sturdy enough to hold up to her little toddler hands. It came with a little ornament she put in the tree and was obsessed with all season.
