My Favorite Christmas Picture Books

I love picture books, even as an adult. I also love Christmas. This time to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. The lights, tree, cookies and gift giving all bring me joy. Combining my love of picture books with Christmas delights my soul. Christmas picture books that remind our children of the true meaning of Christmas are at the top of my wish list. Today I thought I’d share my favorite Christmas picture books that point to Jesus.

Add these favorites to your child’s wish list:

No matter the age of your kids, picture books are still a joy to read. I pull out all our Christmas picture books every year, even though my kids are teenagers now. I place them on the coffee table in plain sight. Every once in a while, I catch them reading one. I hope you can enjoy some of these wonderful books this season.

Have a Very Merry Christmas!
