Books Make Great Holiday Gifts! Candlewick Press Can Help!

Well, it's that time of year again! Actually, it has been for a little while. Once Thanksgiving Day passes, it's kind of hard to deny. I'm the "Book Aunt." My nephews and lone niece always received cash stuck in a brand new book at our annual family holiday gathering. I never thought too much about what they thought or whether they read the books I gave. Apparently, they did and looked forward to receiving them. 

If you are shopping for holiday gifts, books make great gifts! You have plenty of end-of-year "Best" lists to consult for possibilities. Boxed sets of books make for a great gift as well! Candlewick Press has redesigned the cover of Raymie Nightingale to match the gorgeous covers of Louisiana's Way Home and Beverly, Right Here. The Three Rancheros books nestle in a sturdy three-sided box that will look lovely on any book shelf. Another advantage of giving boxed sets is your gift recipient need not wait to continue on to the next book!

I read but did not review Raymie Nightingale, which was a National Book Award Finalist, when it published back in 2016. I adored Louisiana's Way Home in July of 2018 and reviewed it here. A year later, I fell in love all over again with Beverly, Right Here. DiCamillo is a fearless writer who excels in spare writing that captures the emotional landscape of outsiders and the overlooked.
