For the past couple of years, I've put together a "book box" as a Christmas gift for each of my boys. Milo's book box this year includes: a lift-the flap version of "The Snowman" by Raymond Briggs, "The Story Orchestra: Learn 8 Easy Pieces of Classical Music" (with a built-in piano), and a lift-the-flap book called "Cat Family Christmas." Linus' book box this year includes: "Garfield Complete Works: Volume 2," "Make Your Own Board Game: Designing, Building, and Playing an Original Tabletop Game," and the first book in a series called "The Amazing Tales of Max and Liz" (about a dog and a cat who go on Bible-themed adventures, as far as I can tell).

That version of The Hobbit looks lovely. I want the LOTR illustrated edition! I love Jan Brett books.

I am just realizing that I bought ZERO books for my children for Christmas. Epic fail.
