“This is one of our go-to holiday board books. The pictures are colorful, and my daughters have fun looking at the shining, glittery details on each page. The story is simple and straightforward--it's not too long, but it's what you expect. It's a great way to prepare a child who will be seeing the Nutcracker ballet and get them excited about it!”
