A perfect version of the Nutcracker to read aloud. Great illustrations and Animotion make it accessible to both younger and older readers.

All Christmas picture/childrens books read in any years are because my family has a collection of children’s books and I for some reason decide to read them most years, prob cause we love Christmas. Anyways we don’t judge reading any Christmas children’s books. (Same applies to all Christmas children’s books)

I like this book because there were flaps that made things dance dance dance dance dance dance dance.

My five-year-old son picked this book out from the library today. Yeah, I know it is July.

My goodness, this was a gorgeous book! The nutcracker story was competently told, but the illustration completely elevate this book to a masterpiece. Two words: Lenticular ballerinas.
