Synopsis: Holly Babes take us on a Holiday countdown, filled with decorations and friends preparing to celebrate the season.


My Review: I admit I am totally obsessed with the Holly Babes, they are just too cute! The illustrations are absolutely adorable. The countdown items seem to be unique and different from other holiday countdown books I have read, ie. caroling birds or lambs on their way to bed. Possibly one of my favorite books I have read to Munchkin this Christmas season.

My 2 Cents
A very cute book for toddlers. Wonderful and cute illustrations. Suitable for little kids who are beginner readers (reluctant readers would like this too)
