Clement C. Moore (Author), Maggie Swanson (Illustrator)

Book Description

Age Level: 3 and up | Series: Scratch & Sniff

Peppermints, popcorn, and hot apple cider: with a scratch and a sniff, Clement C. Moore’s perennial holiday favorite comes deliciously alive as never before. Populated by animal characters (including a bear-y merry St. Nick), every brightly illustrated spread features a different delectable Christmas smell for kids to uncover: spicy nutmeg sprinkled on favorite foods, the aroma of blue spruce trees, the leather reins on Santa’s sled, oranges in his sack, and a whiff of warm pie crust.
Cheerful, energetic, and unique, this is sure to be a much-loved volume for many years to come.

The book was disappointing. The artwork and the printing are lovely, but the smells don't work at all well.

Loved that this scratch and sniff book came wrapped in celophane. The scents were very strong. Hope we can still smell them next Christmas. Very nice pictures. I would recommend it.

My four year old Granddaughter loves scratch & sniff books and we have lots of fun reading together and experiencing the scents. With this book, she keeps asking me to skip the sniffing part because they are terrible. We were both very disappointed since the book I bought her last year for Christmas was so good we read it all year.
