PreS-K–The polar bear from classic Eric Carle books is back and finds an empty conifer tree. “In a quiet world with snow so white, something special stirs in sight.” Birds, rabbits, squirrels, and more gather to decorate the tree and celebrate on the snowy Christmas night. Rhyming text makes this book perfect for story times. On each page with text, one or two words are highlighted in a complementary color. The art is done in the style of quintessential Carle.
VERDICT A perfect simple, nonreligious Christmas book featuring beautifully illustrated polar bears and friends. Recommend for all children’s sections.
