The Christmas Door is a poem about the magic of Christmas. A little girl finds a door in the floor of her living room on Christmas Eve. When she opens it, Santa and his reindeer emerge to continue their present delivery. This poem teaches children about the magic of Christmas and being kind to others is just as important as gift giving. After all, being kind is more important than a toy.

The magic of Christmas is everywhere – and in this new story poem from Penny Macoun, a young girl will discover a new layer to this magic. A young girl finds a mysterious door in her house near her Christmas tree on Christmas Eve – what is it and how did it get there? When she opens it, a magical surprise awaits her – Santa and his reindeer! So, they don’t always use the chimney after all! I suppose this trapdoor is how Santa gets into the chimney-less houses across the world, like in Australia!

This delightful story poem is about the magic of Christmas and the joy in seeing something you believe in. The reindeer and Santa, the sleigh, and the sack of pressies. Christmas is a time of joy – and this book encapsulates lots of that joy, and how everyone who celebrates Christmas in all their different ways. I loved this book because it was so full of joy and presented the celebration of Christmas in a unique way, that can get kids excited about Christmas and everything that is meant to come with it.

I loved this unique take on Christmas traditions, and how we all encounter Santa, and our belief in him. We get to see how much fun it would be to meet Santa and his reindeer in this magical story, and their lovely link to Christmas. This is another great book to add to the Christmas reading list, and I love that there are so many out there these days, giving us lots of choice and lots of experiences to read about. Another great book by Penny Macoun!
