The Christmas Countdown is officially on and we’ve been filled with holiday cheer in the shop. Finding inspired gifts during the last-minute rush can be tricky, but we are here to help. Our bookshelves are filled with new and beloved titles for kids and grown-ups alike. Here are some of our favourites you can pick up in the shop, and have gift wrapped on-site!
The Art Coloring Book – Annette RoederÂ
This engaging colouring book features the extraordinary work of dozens of artists as a crayola playground for budding artists of any age.
This Moose Belongs to Me – Oliver JeffersÂ
We can’t gush more about Oliver Jeffers; His beautiful books inspire many of our workshops and classes, and we already adore his newest book.
From Mud Huts to Skyscrapers – Christina PaxmannÂ
From the earliest mud huts to today’s soaring towers children are pulled into this journey through the history of architecture.
Extra Yarn – Mac Barnett
A perfect, cozy tale perfected by illustrations by one of our favourites – Jon Klassen (I Want My Hat Back). Great to gift with yarn and knitting needles.
You Are Stardust – Elin Kelsey
This award winning book begins with the idea that we are all born from stars. Grounded in current science, this extraordinary picture book provides opportunities for children to wonder about some big ideas.
Bentlily – Samantha ReynoldsÂ
In 2011, Vancouver’s Samantha Reynolds embarked on her Year of Being a Poet. Over 365 days, she documented moments of kindness, tragedy and surprise through writing one poem and recently published this collection featuring her favourites.
