A Book Review of Peef - The Christmas Bear by Tom Hegg

"The stockings were hung by the chimneys with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there."

-from The Night Before Christmas by Clement Clark Moore or Henry Livingston

Does your family celebrate Santa Claus? In some families, he's part of the magic of Christmas, and parents have fun finding ways to keep the Santa magic alive.

When I was growing up, my family didn't celebrate Santa. With our first child, my husband and I carried on the tradition and didn't celebrate Santa either.

My younger daughter did believe in Santa, though. When she was small, I ran an in-home daycare, and all the kids who came believed in Santa - so it was just easier to let her believe as well. Except the year that Peef the Christmas bear arrived. That was an exciting one.

In fact, we all were willing to believe in Santa that year.

Peef: The Christmas Bear by Tom Hegg is a delightful storybook about a magical bear Santa creates one Christmas. Peef is never quite satisfied with his life as Santa's helper. His real dream is to find a home where he will be loved by a child. And, because it's Christmas, Peef's dream finally comes true!

This book is a perfect gift for a child to find under a tree on Christmas morning, especially when you bundle it with the Peef Bean Bag Bear. That's what my daughter received the year she was three, and she was convinced that Peef had chosen to stay with her.

Now that my daughter is almost a teenager, she fondly remembers Santa Claus, but tells me she's glad I told her the truth when she was old enough to ask for it.

I asked her, "Do you remember Peef?"

She got the same look on her face that she had 9 years ago when she first received the bear and his beloved book. "I loved Peef," she said wistfully, remembering that magical Christmas morning too.

If you're looking for an easy way to sprinkle some more magic into your child's Christmas morning, I suggest you share the beautiful story of Peef the Christmas Bear with your child. My daughter and I just read the book again tonight, and the last lines still make us smile and want to believe:

"And as he vanished, one small child was thrilled beyond belief.
For right beside a pillow there, a little bear said, 'Peef!'"

-from Peef: The Christmas Bear by Tom Hegg
