Candlewick Press arrived on the scene with some of the highest-quality picture books anywhere. And in the years since then, their offerings have grown to encompass all ages, from board books to e-books, high-end novelty to cutting-edge fiction. What hasn’t wavered is  their goal of excellence, and commitment to the authors and illustrators who create their books and the readers who love them.

 They have some wonderful Christmas books out that would be perfect for now or for any time of year!

Here’s a particular favorite of ours!

Guess How Much I Love You (20th Anniversary Edition) (ages 1-3)

GuessHowMuchILoveYou

Sometimes, when you love someone very, very much, you want to find a way of describing how much you treasure them. But, as Little Nutbrown Hare and Big Nutbrown Hare discover, love is not an easy thing to measure! For two decades, Sam McBratney’s timelessly endearing story, beautifully rendered in Anita Jeram’s exquisite watercolors, has captured the deep and tender bond between parent and child. Guess How Much I Love You is one of the world’s best-loved picture books.

Celebrate twenty years of sharing love to the moon and back with this anniversary edition dressed in an elegant new cover.


Maisy’s Christmas Tree (ages 2-5)
Maisy'sChristmasTree

Today Maisy and her pals are decorating the Christmas tree! There are lights to string, ornaments to hang, candy canes to put up, and an angel to place at the very top. After wrapping presents, it’s time to sing Christmas carols around the tree. Merry Christmas to Maisy and all her friends!

What better treat to tuck in a stocking than this sweet Maisy board book shaped like a Christmas tree?


Peppa Pig and the Day at Snowy Mountain (ages 2-5)
PeppaPig

When Peppa Pig and her little brother, George, wake up one day and see that it’s snowing, they can’t wait to go to Snowy Mountain. There’s so much to do there — sledding (using Daddy’s belly), ice-skating (George is a natural; who knew?), and of course skiing. Mummy Pig remembers how to ski. But does she remember how to stop?

It’s a celebration of winter sports as Peppa and her charming family have a day of snowy fun.


And Then Comes Christmas (Ages 4-8)
AndThenComesChristmas
From icicles clinging to roofs and houses strung with colorful lights to visiting Santa and hunting for the perfect tree, this classic-in-the-making celebrates all of the holiday’s excitement. Evoking both winter’s changes to the world outside and well-loved traditions taking place within, here is a story to encourage readers to curl up with their loved ones and bask in the magic of the Christmas season.

A lyrical invitation to watch for signs of the approaching season — and revel in the homespun rituals that warm a family celebration.






Now, one of you lucky readers is going to win this collection of books for your family! Happy Holidays!
