Slightly older children, and perhaps girls in particular, will like “Charlotte and Friends,” a calendar celebrating the animals from E.B.' White’s classics, “Charlotte’s Web” and “Stuart Little.” Still older children might like a “Star Wars” calendar.
6 & 7. The classic bedtime read aloud for very young children is still “Goodnight Moon” (HarperCollins) by Margaret Wise Brown. With colorful illustrations and very little text, it is the bedtime ritual of a young child saying goodnight to all the objects in the bedroom.
A more contemporary, and still very reassuring bedtime read aloud is “Can’t You Sleep, Little Bear?” (Candlewick Press) by Martin Waddell.
8. If you are nostalgic, then find “Madeline in America” (Scholastic Press) by Ludwig Bemelmans with illustrations by John Bemelmans Marciano. Readers ages 5-8 already familiar with Madeline will find four short stories about that lovable French character who lived “in an old house in Paris that was covered in vines ...” This edition has been lovingly and lavishly illustrated by the grandson of Ludwig Bemelmans, the creator of Madeline.
Included with these stories is a Christmas story of Madeline’s, and a memoir of the real Bemelmans’ Christmas penned by Barbara Bemelmans, Ludwig’s daughter.
