BabyLit is a fashionable way to introduce your baby to the world of classic literature
With this colorfully illustrated board book version of the classic Christmas-time ballet, Jennifer Adams and Alison Oliver present a new holiday favorite, The Nutcracker: A BabyLit Dancing Primer. This board book features soldiers marching, mice prancing, snowflakes swirling, dolls bending, and buffoons skipping as a way to introduce basic movement terms to babies and toddlers.
This is a fairly new Babylit Board Book for little ones featuring the story of oeThe Nutcracker. I bought this book for my 1-year-old, and my 5-year-old (who is in ballet and loves the dancing pictures) was equally invested as I read it; they made me read it three times. They loved the lovely illustrations and the simple story, and after I (TM)d read it, my 1-year-old kept looking at the pictures of the mice on his own. It (TM)s a great book to start sharing the story of oeThe Nutcracker, and a perfect Christmas story to give.
