Snowbear's Christmas Countdown -金陵英文童书馆

Overview / 简介:

Step-by-step preparation for a specific event, counting with numbers, and marking the passage of days with a calendar are all combined in this clever story of a little polar bear getting ready for Christmas. Every page represents another day on the December calendar in which Snowbear experiences a different holiday activity. Day one is for scribbling a list for Santa, day thirteen is for sledding with friends, and so on. The busy little bear sends Christmas cards, wraps gifts, puts up lights, and makes ornaments for the tree as the days gradually count down to Christmas. Superb cut-paper and cloth collages illustrate the industrious proceedings.

From Organization / 国外机构评价:

PreSchool-Grade 2–On December 1, Snowbear begins his preparations for Christmas by making a wish list for Santa. Each of the next 24 days finds him engaged in a new activity–stringing lights, arranging his snow-globe collection, sending cards, making ornaments, wrapping presents, watching his favorite holiday movies. The simple text and appealing cut-paper collage illustrations provide a complete iconography for a warm-and-fuzzy celebration for this winning character and his animal friends.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价:

The month of December is very special for Snowbear, as it is home to the Christmas holiday. So Snowbear begins making preparations for the big day. He puts up his decorations, sends out Christmas cards, writes a letter to Santa Claus at the North Pole, buys gifts for all of his friends, rides his sled, makes hot chocolate and cookies, and tons more. And as each day passes, Snowbear's excitement increases at the prospect of the holiday that is quickly coming. Theresa Smythe has created a wonderful new children's book that captures the excitement that everyone feels around the Christmas holiday, while inserting a subtle teaching method, that will help young readers learn to count from 1 to 25 with the help of Snowbear. Filled with an easy-to-read story, and lovely illustrations SNOWBEAR'S CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN will be a favorite among parents, and children, as well as educators.
