This  board book features A little girl named Lucy and her best friend Sparkle the Unicorn, Celebrating Christmas. The overall message of the book is that Christmas should not be just about getting presents, but should be a time to enjoy time spent with friends and family. For a board book I found this to be very wordy and the delivery of the message could’ve been clearer. I think this book would do well in a Kindergarten classroom during the holidays, otherwise I wouldn’t bother adding it to a collection.
