“Kyra’s partner in Christmas mischief is her own Grandpa, so it begs for a grandparent’s lap. Cosy and sweet as marzipan, it makes a lovely stocking filler.”
Twelve jumbo marzipans, hidden in a tin. Hands off until Christmas Eve.
A Bite Before Christmas is a festive picture book about a family, a tin of homemade marzipans and some sweet Christmas mischief.
As December rolls on, Mom shapes twelve jumbo marzipans, three each of fancy fruits, sparkly stars, pretty flowers and chubby hearts. Nobody may eat them before Christmas Eve, so into a tin they go. Then Kyra and Grandpa get their jobs playfully mixed up, and the wait turns into a merry muddle.
Why children love it
- Grandpa's teasing "You're a heart-stealer!" and other lines made for reading aloud.
- Page borders full of marzipan shapes, with tiny ants creeping in to spot.
- A full house of cousins, aunts and neighbours, plus a black-and-white cat.
