Miracle on 34th Street is a classic. Always having been a favorite of mine, I was so excited to share this cherished story with my son. The book is a magical one full of vividly beautiful illustrations and the spirit of Christmas and giving to others. A beloved classic, I think this book will be a hit this Christmas and every Christmas to come. My son fell in love with the pictures and with the meaning of the story behind it. The book is absolutely lovely in every way and the words are clear and filled with warmth, leaving them easy for kids to understand the meaning.

Full of hope, joy and the magic, the spirit of Christmas, Miracle on 34th Street captures it all in a way all children will love.

Whoo-hoo! It's just TWELVE WEEKS until Christmas!! I adore the holiday season. I especially love good holiday movies and books!

One of my favorite Christmas movies is "Miracle on 34th Street" starring Natalie Wood. At the time that the movie was made, Valentine Davies also penned a short novella to accompany the film release. There have been several adaptations of the movie and book but no other book has been released by the Davies estate - until now. 

Miracle on 34th Street is a picture book for kids of all ages. The story is accurately re-told for the enjoyment of children. The writing, while simple, is not childishly over-handed and the prose flows brilliantly throughout the book. The illustrations by James Newman Gray are exquisite. Their detail and vivid colors are sure to capture the eye of many young readers. 

Most importantly, this new rendition fully captures the hope, magic and joy of the original movie. This is a must-have book for your holiday library collection. 

Thank you to #Netgalley, #SourcebooksJabberwocky and the Davies Estate for this marvelous holiday tale.

This is the classic story that everyone knows & loves, brought to life with beautiful illustrations. The pictures were all so beautiful, and the text fit in perfectly.

Miracle on 34th Street, by the Valentine Davies Estate, is the storybook edition of the Christmas classic we all have come to know and love. The exquisite and beautifully detailed book illustrations are done by James Newman Gray, and they perfectly capture the magic of the story and the wonder of Christmas.

Susan is a little girl that does not believe in Santa, or any of the other Christmas miracles or magic. All of that changes when she meets Kriss Kringle, and she tells him what her Christmas wishes are. On the outside, she acts like she does not believe her wishes will come true. However, inside she is secretly hoping that Kriss Kringle is the real thing. This is a story about one little girl's hope in something and someone...if she just finds it in her heart to believe in the magic of Christmas.

Miracle on 34th Street perfectly captures the spirit and magic of Christmas. This is a flawless rendition of the classic, and one that children of all ages will treasure and adore for many years to come. I would strongly recommend this book. Miracle on 34th Street will be the perfect gift for children this holiday season.

I would like to thank Sourcebooks Jabberwocky and NetGalley for allowing me the opportunity to read and review Miracle on 34th Street. My views are my own, and are in no way influenced by anyone else.
