Hello everyone ! :) Tomorrow Chris will take a day off so I don't know if I'll be able to post, so here I am today, even if a bit late. (it's 06pm now)
Sooo .. I don't have any pics to share today as I have decided that, while not buying any new books till January 2009 (little no-expense challenge with lil* ol* me), I could share the references of the Christmas / winter / holidays books we have here, at home, on our shelves. I know some of you could be interested. I don't have the proper time to go upload the photo of each book, I'm sorry, I hope you'll enjoy anyway. Some are available at Amazon, but some are not.
TODAY : CHILDREN BOOKS Part One

UP THE WOODEN HILL
by Sam McBratney & Sebastian Braun

YOU CAN DO IT, SAM
by Amy Hest & Anita Jeram
ISBN 0763636886
Sweet illustrations, and a sweet little story of a little bear who looks his mama bear bake biscuits & he'll deliver some to his best friends. Snowy streets, hot cocoa, everything is perfect !
THE CHRISTMAS SURPRISE
by A.J. Wood & Maggie Kneen
ISBN 0811832104
Maggie Kneen's illustrations are so magical, I love each of her books ! But this Christmas themed one puts you particularly in the mood for the holidays !
WINTER STORY (BRAMBLY HEDGE)
by Jill Barklem
ISBN 0001983679
Brambly Hedge ... aaaah, you can beat Jill Barklem illustrations too ... they're so adorable, they look so vintage, like Beatrix Potter's. Little mice's houses in the trees, their festive celebrations ... everything is so beautiful & cosy ! Love them !
MICKEY MOUSE FLIES THE CHRISTMAS MAIL
by Annie North Bedford
ISBN 0736424245
Little ones love Mickey & this book from the Golden Books collection shows old fashioned Mickey, which is a delight for little ones & grown ups too.
THE SNOW BEAR

ISBN 0525466584
Cute little story of a little snow bear who looses his mama in the snow ... but everything ends well ...
CHRISTMAS IN THE COUNTRYby Cynthia Rylant & Diane Goode
ISBN 043976985X
OK, ladies, that'll be enough for today I guess ... I share the second half of the children books recommendations tomorrow or the day after. I hope you enjoyed this for the moment ! *Ü*
And, YES, I am definitely thinking about Christmas. Advent calendar first (because it's what will come first chronologically - and I'd like it to be handmade ...), Christmas cards, Christmas gifts, Christmas & winter decorations, and of course Christmas sweet (but not only) treats ... that's A LOT to think of FIRST, and then that'll be A LOT to HANDMADE !!! Heeeeellllp !!! LOL ah ah ah !
I hope you'll have a great middle of the week. Sending big hugs OXOXOX
