If you want a reminder of the real meaning of Christmas you need to get this book! A little boy named Chip decides to do something special for his grandpa this year. He has the great idea to make a Christmas ornament each day until Christmas. He makes one with footprints, reminding him of following grandpa in the snow. One has a sad face because Fluffy got sick and had to go to the doctor. One is a mailbox ornament because Chip loves waiting for the mailman every day so he can walk to the mailbox with grandpa.You and your children will treasure this book! This extraordinary book captures the magic of Christmas. It's a must for little children and their families! I highly recommend it.

Christmas with Grandpa is a sweet book that shows the true meaning of Christmas, giving to others. Chip loves his grandpa and wants to show him how much by making a different ornament for him for the 12 days of Christmas. Each ornament has a special meaning for them both. This story is a perfect Christmas book for the holiday with its colorful illustrations and red and green theme. I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
