Alfie's Christmas

LoveReading4Kids Says

Shirley Hughes and Alfie are back with this beautiful festive story with Alfie and his family celebrating Christmas.  From the opening of the advent calendar, writing Christmas cards, choosing a Christmas tree to all the joyful things they share on the big day itself (including the not so joyful search for last minute batteries).  The book has a wonderfully gentle feel to it and explores the importance of family and tradition at this most exciting time of year.  Shirley Hughes’ illustrations are instantly recognisable and filled with colour and light; they have a timeless feel and are a pleasure to look at throughout the small hardback book.  As always she has a wonderful ability to capture just the right emotion and feeling within each and every illustration.  An absolute delight, this will be a wonderful book to share with excited young ones in the run up to Christmas and is sure to become a favourite. ~ Shelley Fallows
