Synopsis from Sterling Kids:

Count down to Christmas with this beautiful novelty book by bestselling author/illustrator Salina Yoon--complete with flaps to lift, sticky boot buckles to open, and gold foil on the grand finale. From one merry Santa to ten wrapped presents, this joyful rhyming tale follows Saint Nick and his elves as they prepare for the big day--making the toys, checking Santa's list, and readying the reindeer. Set to the rhythm of “One Two, Buckle My Shoe,” One Christmas Eve is fun to read aloud, play with, and look at!

Building around the familiar rhyme One, Two, Bucke My Shoe, One Christmas Eve encourages kids to count along in this festive book. Kids follow along as Santa gets ready to deliver gifts to the boys and girls. Each pages opens with a familiar rhyme -- One, Two. Buckle my shoe -- and then continues the rhyme based on Santa's suroundings.

Each rhyme also encourages kids to explore the pages to count various groups of things. On the one, two page, kids explore to find other groups of one or two, like one mouse and two buckles on Santa's boots. There are also flaps to open for surprise images.

One Christmas Eve is a fun early concept and reading book that ties into the holidays nicely.
