I'm Ready for Christmas

These fun, relatable books help explain the world to our little readers familiarising them with new situations or explaining traditions. The simplicity of the sentences and eye catching illustrations make them accessible and highly appealing.

I love the idea behind this series which is to bridge the gap between early concept books (ABC, numbers etc) and standard picture books. What is even more attractive is the truly Australian flavour throughout . . . Just delightful!

With street parties, barbecues and picnics, Christmas decorations, wrapping presents, family and reflecting on the year that's been, I'm Ready for Christmas is bound to put you in a Christmas frame of mind. The adorable illustrations of quintessential Australian scenes with native Australian characters are a knockout.

The series is illustrated in super cute style by Jedda Robaard, with pictures beautifully complementing the text. And the books themselves are just the right size for little hands to hold . . . One of the great things about this series is that it's Australian. That means the Christmas story is set in summer! . . . The stories address common questions children might have, and the friendly characters and recognisable situations will appeal to them and help gently allay any concerns. Grab these books for the littlest book lovers in your family, and you'll be well on your way to preparing them for new experiences.
