Ashlyn: This book was always a family favorite as a kid. I just bought a copy of the book to read to my class. They loved it! They were so invested in it and they loved the illustrations. They're so magical. When Lucy opens the box of candies they all gasped like they were really there! The message of the story is displayed well too. One of my favorite Christmas books :)

Lesley: This is an excellent book to add to the Christmas collection. It ties the candy cane into the biblical reason for Christmas and I really like that. J for Jesus, a shepherds staff, red for the blood of the lamb and white for the purity of forgiveness. I’ve read the candy cane poem before so I’m really happy to see it in book form. The Author really does a great job of tying in Christ’s death and resurrection in a light way that children can understand. My six year old son loves the story and constantly asks me to read this book. It will be a favourite for many years to come.

MrsKinsey: This is a lovely book with a sweet story (pun not intended). My almost-5-year-old daughter enjoyed it. I read the reviews before purchasing and was concerned about the negative reviews in regards to the illustration of Jesus being whipped. This was not a graphic picture at all. (One can see far more disturbing images on television.) My daughter is very familiar with how Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood to wash away our sins, and neither the illustration nor the story disturbed her at all. I really liked how the story linked candy canes with Jesus. I don't care if this was a historically-correct story or not. The book doesn't claim to based on historical fact. The back of the book even says, "While we may never know the full history of the candy cane, we can share in the truth behind its symbol, the truth of Christ's birth and redemption, and the gift of his love." It's a good story for children that provides a nice way to remind children of why Jesus was born here on earth.

I ordered this book on 12/10 and received it 12/23. I was a little disappointed in how long it took to get here, but at least it did come before Christmas.
