Looking for the best Christmas books for toddlers, preschoolers, and big kids? Here’s an awesome list.
I love owning book collections specific to each holiday and my kids look so forward to when they come out.
Think toy rotation but for books.
These special mini collections are a great way to introduce a holiday to toddlers and make lasting memories for childhood.

What are the best Christmas books to own?
I love a good holiday themed book, but I also love a book that has years of life ahead of it.
I don’t have time for one-and-done books that only last a season… I don’t have time OR money for that. I’m always looking for holiday books that will span multiple Christmases with my kids.
And that’s exactly what I’ve found.
This list is a GREAT mix of simple Christmas books or toddlers and longer books for preschool/grade school kids.
I even put my list – more or less – ranked by complexity / story length / attention span. From a one word board book to a thoughtful book on Christmas around the world, this list spans the ages.
