Blurb: 

Goodness Gracious Golly Gee, I forgot my Christmas tree! Goodness Gracious Golly Gee, what will Santa think of me?

With Christmas right around the corner, a stay-at-home dad scrambles at the last minute to get everything ready for the holidays. Like many parents who experience holiday-related anxiety, the father is overwhelmed by the many expectations that come with Christmas. From putting up the tree, decorating the house, and baking Christmas cookies, the father worries he won't be able to get it all done in time for Santa's arrival.

Will his family, not to mention jolly old St. Nick, be disappointed if there's no Christmas tree? In this whimsical rhyming Christmas tale, the pressures to buy the perfect present and maintain holiday traditions take a backseat as the father is reminded of the true spirit of Christmas (with a little help from a mysterious, magical Christmas figure who comes to save the day)!
 



My Review: 

The mother daughter duo, Carol and Cori Burcham has written a charming and entertaining with their Goodness Gracious Golly Gee: I Forgot My Christmas Tree! My children and I sat down together and read it together. Oh what fun we had. We could not help but to laugh at times while reading it. It was a great way to spend a few minutes together. It is an easy read that has rhyming text on each page.

Goodness Gracious Golly Gee: I Forgot My Christmas Tree! is illustrated by the talented Agus Prajogo. Their vividly colorful pictures on the pages are beautiful to look at. They were a delight to see them as we followed along with the story. A perfect addition to the book.

I am giving Goodness Gracious Golly Gee: I Forgot My Christmas Tree! a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for families with children between the ages of five and ten. It would be a perfect addition to add to their annual Christmas reading.

I received a digital copy of Goodness Gracious Golly Gee: I Forgot My Christmas Tree! from the authors, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
