NORTH POLE VILLAGE
By: Sabrina Makhsimova
Illustrated by: Dinara Mirtalipova
Published: September 19, 2023
Publisher: Chronicle Kids
Fiction
This set of three board books in one makes a great gift for the little ones on your list. With these three shaped board books, your toddler will read about Mr. Klaus’s House, the Polar Bear’s Nook, and the Toymaker’s Workshop. All three books fit inside the trifold case that opens to reveal a winter village. A magnetic closure keeps them all locked into the case.
Sabrina has written poetic, rhyming stories for little ones while collaborating with her talented artist Mom, Dinara. Each little board book takes kids inside a special place inside the winter village. Spend a day with Mr. Klaus as he eats his breakfast and heads to the shop to inspect all the toys before they are delivered to some special boys and girls. Watch as the mice work hard to carve, paint, and wrap up all the new toys they have made at the Toymaker’s Workshop. Bundle up as you head to the Polar Bear’s Nook, way up north. Watch as Bear goes fishing or cozies up with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book.
This set of three board books fits perfectly inside a stocking and is a great way to celebrate your toddler’s Christmas. Gift it with the other three book set by this mother/daughter team, MERFOLK VILLAGE for year-round reading.
