5.0 out of 5 stars Good book for toddlers, January 22, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Corduroy's Christmas (Lift-the-flap Books) (Hardcover)

My almost two-year-old son loves this book so much that on occasion I have hidden it so I could get a break. The illustrations are cute and very relevant. The story has only a few words per page so it is appropriate for young readers. My only complaint is that the flaps are not as sturdy as alot of other flap books. Still, we have definitely gotten our money's worth out of Corduroy's Christmas.

Every child needs a Christmas book in their collection and this is the perfect one. Join Corduroy when he writes to Santa and he goes out caroling. This beautifuly colored book is filled with flaps to lift and things to find. Corduroy is a cute little bear that your children will love forever. What better way to celebrate Christmas than with a cuddly bear. Your child will want to read this book again and again and so will you!

This review is from: Corduroy's Christmas (Lift-the-flap Books) (Hardcover)

My 20 year old daughter absolutely loved the corduroy stories when she was a child and I still have her original books. This is the third Corduroy story I sent to my two year old niece, first sending Corduroy's Thanksgiving, which her mother said she read "over, and over, and over etc." So I sent the gift pack of the first Corduroy book which is packaged with a small Corduroy bear, whom my niece carries around wherever she goes. So I sent Corduroy's Christmas and her mother says she just can't put it down. She loves the flaps, the story and most of all, Corduory! A children's classic which I hope never goes out of print.
