Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
My Family Celebrates Christmas
Lisa Bullard · 2022
74/100
👍 Worth It
A well-made early reader from a prolific and credentialed children's author, backed by a library-trusted series with genuine back-matter depth. The discussion questions and photo spreads lift it above a simple holiday narrative, and the family-centered warmth makes it a reliable classroom pick. Families wanting explicitly religious Christmas content will need to look elsewhere, but as a cultural celebration book for early readers it does what it should, and does it well.
