"Merry Christmas, Hugless Douglas" By David Melling

What can be more beautiful than a pre-holiday reading with a child of a book with pictures, where a magical story is happily and colorfully told.

The story told in the book "Merry Christmas, Hugless Douglas" By David Melling is almost not a fairy tale story, there the fairy tale begins only at the very end. And in the beginning it's just the most cheerful game in the courtyard of a big house or in a village square, where a lot of different-aged people are gathered, many children and the main hero of this story is Douglas Bear.

He has wonderful manners and most of all he loves hugs. That is, despite his height and age, and he is clearly older than his friends, he remains in the shower as a child. In fact, in the performance of the artist, the bear Douglas in part resembles the grandfather, because the grandfathers are strong and vigorous, and especially playful when it is required, for example, to play snowballs, roll a snowman, even from a hill, they can easily roll down. This is for them a great joy and great happiness.

Among other things, this book is also a search engine, in it the child will have to find a bird ...

I will not tell the whole story, it is not very big, but very funny and interesting. In addition, the child will love the drawings in this book, which can be viewed separately from the text, so expressive and colorful.

And at the end of the book, there is a very useful page "Things to do at Christmas time". Of course, adults, if they have young children, have already prepared and know what to do with their children in the Christmas time. But the child will be pleased to poke his finger in any of the pictures and see something familiar, or invite parents to do something new on the "instructions" from the book.

Here such here Douglas, very kind, warm, christmas bear. A beautiful deer of Santa Claus Rudy, who is also involved in this story. Read along with the children and get a pleasure.
