Pip and Posy : The Christmas Tree - ADVISABLE

Pip and Posy : The Christmas Tree by Axel Scheffler PICTURE BOOK, Noisy Crow (Candlewick Press), 2018. $13. 1536202762

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

It's Christmas and Pip & Posy have brought home a tree to decorate themselves. First they make cookies to hang on the tree, but when Posy is out of the room, Pip eats one, then he eats a candy cane and eventually everything has been eaten and Pip feels very sick. How will they get the tree decorated in time for Christmas? 

Pip and Posy are great siblings - Posy's reaction to Pip eating the decorations is great - the illustrations are hilarious. They don't blame or fight, just figure it out. A wonderful Christmas book about working together.
