Great gift books for every little reader on your holiday list - because we still think they make the best gifts of all
Even in the sea of toys piled high under our Christmas tree, my kids are always excited to receive books as holiday gifts. Always. And I admit, I'm pretty happy too. They're gifts that all my kids will enjoy at one time or another, and perhaps even their kids too.
We've loved the mom-founded publisher Barefoot Books ever since we first featured them on Cool Mom Picks many, many years ago, so how exciting that they're our newest sponsor! We've gone through their catalog to pick out some of our favorite gift book sets that you can still get in time for Christmas.
Plus, we've added creative ways to make books a little more personal and a little more gifty.
Don't miss our mini-gift guide of books for kids, an amazing exclusive discount, and a $500 sweepstakes after the jump. Whoo!

Every chef has to start somewhere (not just washing dishes), and the Kids' Kitchen recipe cards are a fantastic way, with recipes from Apple Volcanoes and Tropical Milkshakes, to healthy Picnic Kebabs. This is one gift where you really get to reap the benefits too.

If she's more Balzac than Breaking Dawn, the Classic Indie Reader Collection will make her squeal, with must-reads from the Arabian Nights to Robin Hood, retold for middle-grade readers. Team William!
