“No Other Story,” by Dr. Cuthbert Soup. $16.99. Ages 8-12.

This is the third book in a series that tells the story of the Cheeseman family, which is dad Ethan Cheeseman and his three “smart, polite and attractive children.” (The reason why there is no mother is central to the story, which is about time travel, dinosaurs and delicious ice cream.) Even if you haven’t read the earlier books in the series, you’ll find this story exciting and mostly laugh-out-loud funny.

“The Santa Trap,” by Jonathan Emmett. $15.95. Age 5 and older.

We’re really hoping that none of you reading this is as bad a kid as Bradley Bartleby. Because even Santa (圣诞老人) finds it hard to put Bradley on a “nice” list. In fact, Santa won’t give Bradley anything but socks, and bad, bad Bradley is bored. So he sets out to trap Santa and steal all the toys that Santa is carrying for good girls and boys. This funny story will have you talking about the importance of “being good.”

“Let’s Make Some Great Fingerprint Art,” by Marion Deuchars. $14.95. Age 5 and older.

All you need to enjoy this book is your finger, and ink pad(印台) and your imagination. Do you know that two thumbprints(拇指的指纹) can create a heart or that those same two prints can create pigs, cats or bees? The book is filled with clever ideas, but we think the best part is that it will help you come up with more of your own.

“Twelve Kinds of Ice,” by Ellen Bryan Obed. $16.99. Age 8 and older.

This is a short (just 64 pages) and beautifully pictured book that tells the story of one winter’s worth of ice. It starts with the thin ice that forms on a bottle of water and continues with the ice that is perfect for a skating party. Even when winter draws to a close and the ice has turns into water, you know that some ice always remains: the ice of your memories. This book will have you hoping for a pair of skates under the tree and cold days this winter.
