A Royal Christmas to Remember by Jeanna Young & Jacqueline Johnson - Review

I chose to review this book voluntarily

Published: October 11, 2016
Number of pages: 32
Genre: Children's Holiday
Series: The Princess Parables

Synopsis:
With the arrival of the most spectacular winter in years and Christmas only a night away, Princesses Joy, Grace, Faith, Charity, and Hope find themselves in the midst of a scene right out of a holiday fairytale in this newest adventure in the Princess Parables series A Royal Christmas to Remember. But then the threat of bandits in the village lead the king away from the castle on Christmas Eve! Suddenly, the bandits come crashing into the castle. Praying to God for courage and safety, the princesses are soon rescued by five brave knights and then do some rescuing themselves. The next day, the princesses go to the village to see how they can be of help to the people, discovering that the true meaning of Christmas is honoring and giving glory for the greatest gift of all.

My thoughts:
This is one of the cutest Christmas books for little girls I have read this season. I loved the drawings as they came alive off the pages, with the bright colors and crisp details. This is the story of five princess sisters who learn the value of helping others.  I liked the way the message of helping others comes across in this story. The authors did a good job of getting it across so kids can understand it.
