This book has a lovely, traditional flair, making it perfect for a read aloud leading up to the holidays. The text flows smoothly, giving just enough description to ring in the season, while letting the lively illustrations take over the rest. Each scene holds many details and characters as they busy themselves with activities to make the coming days a joy. This gives plenty of places for the small flaps to hide. Listeners will have to search and find each door, and discover the fun surprises inside. These are hidden enough to make it fun for even slightly older listeners. Count all the way to Christmas Eve with the Cat Family in this lift-the-flap advent calendar–style book with more than 140 doors to open.

Just like an advent calendar, Cat Family Christmas ends with the excitement and anticipation of Christmas Eve . Of course, I absolutely LOVED this book (not only for the cats), especially for the lovely illustrations and detail under the different flaps. A book that children I’m sure would love as a Christmas present, and adults (like me) too, since I love these illustrated volumes! Cat Family Christmas: A Lift the Flap Advent Book, as the name suggests is a picture book that takes readers along as the cat family comprising Mommy and Daddy Cat and kittens Lupin, Bud, Sorrel, and Pip prepare for Christmas over the twelve days to Christmas Eve. Beginning with the day they get off work and school, respectively, we watch as they get ready for Christmas from making pomander oranges and decorating the tree, to baking cake and gingerbread with Mommy and Daddy, fetching Grandma and Grandpa Cat from the railway station, to going carolling (with kitty carols), wrapping presents, and taking special treats to the horses and donkeys in the stables. Each day brings its own exciting activities. Based on a Norwegian folktale, this story doesn’t technically feature a cat at all, only a very large bear and a group of confused trolls. We think that your cat will appreciate the comparison anyway, especially in this delightful retelling of the traditional story from beloved author and illustrator Tomie de Paola.
