If she found something in June that said to her, "This would be a perfect gift for _____!" She'd buy it and put it away for Christmas. Her gifts were always thoughtful. From the verses you included in this lively picture book, I know I'll want to own a copy. Thank you for sharing it for PPBF.

I like to see children pick out toys they've outgrown and give to local programs. One of my favorite global programs is Operation Christmas Child, where children can pack a shoebox with toys, school supplies and hygiene items for kids. Great project for youth groups.
