Holiday Drama

We all know that the holiday season is often filled with busy schedules, crazy to-do lists and drama, drama, drama.  Llama Llama Holiday Drama by Anna Dewdney is the perfect read aloud for realizing we need to put all that other "stuff" aside and enjoy the people in our lives this Christmas season.

Llama LLama cannot wait for the holidays in this great story for little ones.  It features the rhythm and rhyming that all the other Llama Llama books have but with a holiday twist.  The holiday drama starts right off the bat with shopping, baking, making crafts, decorating and mostly waiting, waiting, waiting for the big day to get here. Llama can hardly handle it any longer, "All this waiting for one day?  Time for presents right away!" Just like so many other young children Llama Llama just wants Christmas to get here, and it is so hard to wait.  Mama has to take little Llama in her lap and explain to him that, "Sometimes we should take a rest and hold the ones we love the best.  Wishing, waiting wanting things... we forget what this time brings.  GIfts are nice, but there's another-the true gift is we have each other."

So, if you find yourself caught up in the "wishing, waiting, wanting things" take some time out to cuddle up with your little one and read!  What better way to spend time with the ones your love!

Happy Reading!
