This is a very attractive book. It has an inviting cover and is easy to hold. Tthere are some lovely illustrations. Anna James' choice of stories is excellent. However, a child reading it may be frustrated that the complete stories aren't there but there are only extracts. Maybe it will make them go and seek the full version. I was a little put off by some stories starting on navy blue pages followed by an orange page. Nevertheless, this is a book I shall keep.

A lovely collection of festive and wintery excerpts from classic children’s stories.
