I’ve bought a batch of picture books for a six-year-old lady I know named Megan. I’ve already given her several of the Christmas-themed books so she could enjoy them before the holiday arrives. She loves all the books she’s gotten. She especially likes the illustrations in Marla Frazee's Santa Claus, The World's Number One Toy Expert--which happens to be one of my favorite picture books!
Here are the holiday books I've given to Megan to date:

Thanks for the Horn Book list. I need to go find some of those, but I'm happy to see some of my favorites there, too. A good reminder to get the new Margo Lanagan book, too.
