10 new picture books for the ho ho holidays! (part 1)

I love so many things about this season: crisp autumn leaves to walk through, hot apple cider to savor, cozy afghans to cuddle up under and the release of the new holiday picture books! This year the publishers have been as busy as elves and the list seems to be a bit fuller than usual. All to the good, I say. I hope there is something on this list to brighten your Christmas season. Maybe you will even find one that will become a yearly tradition! enjoy!

1. Pete the Cat Saves Christmas by Eric Litwin

Pete is back with his positive attitude! If you haven't met this groovy cat yet, you simply MUST! Pete is helping a sick Santa deliver presents. Reminding everyone that giving is the best part of the present process. As always, there is a catchy little refrain. You can find it on youtube or the Harper Collins website.

Here come the dinosaurs to once again hold up a mirror to childhood and show us the good, the bad, and the silly. Lush illustrations of holiday revelries mixed with dinosaurs trying (and mostly succeeding ) to do the right thing. Simultaneously released with How Do Dinosaurs Say Happy Chanukah?
