Jan Brett’s new picture book was just released yesterday. I guess that means another trip to the bookstore! I know, I know, I can order it online and have it delivered right to my door…. but what’s the fun in that? $70 spent yesterday (you’re welcomed B&N) and now another trip back tomorrow. Honestly, if I don’t stop all this book buying, I may have to go back to work!
Seriously, you know how beautiful all of her artwork is. It just captures the reader (and listener) and immerses them into the world of the story. I always hate when I get to the end of one of her stories, because I have to leave her world and come back to reality.
I do love Jan Brett. My favorite Christmas book is still Who’s That Knocking on Christmas Eve? So gorgeous.

I do love her work too! Got hooked with The Mitten and never quit. Speaking of Christmas books, have you read her books The Wild Christmas Reindeer, The Christmas Trolls, and The Twelve Days of Christmas? They are amazing!

This looks like a very different but intriguing book from Jan Brett. I love her books. Know what you mean about spending so much at B&N. I think book sales dominate my purchases.

Mine too, but I love it! And in my own defense, my purchases usually went to my classroom – now they go to my grandchildren!
