Reviewed by Cayden Aures (age 6) and Mom for Reader Views (08/10)

Cayden:  “I remember hearing this song before so I knew some of the words that were going to be in the book before we even read them.  I liked looking at all of the Christmas pictures and all of the snow pictures.  Some places don’t have snow at Christmas time.  We always do though.  My favorite picture was the snow globe picture at the end.  I liked that it had the music notes for the song at the end too because I can play piano a little bit and want to try playing it.”

Parent’s comments:

We enjoyed Michael Hague’s illustrations accompanying Irving Berlin’s classic holiday song, “White Christmas.”  There are so many wonderful details to look at throughout the book that your child will notice new things every time you read it to them.  The inclusion of the music at the end is great as well and I can’t wait to hear my son play it!
