A Lone Star Christmas by Glenn Blekicki is a heartwarming celebration of Texas-sized holiday spirit. This lively picture book takes readers on a journey through a uniquely Texan Christmas. Santa wears a white cowboy hat, the Riverwalk sparkles with luminaries, and the star on top of the tree shines not for Bethlehem but for Big D, Dallas. The story is filled with playful references to Texan culture, from wildcatters and cowboys to beloved sports teams like the Cowboys, Rangers, and Astros. The rhythmic text is punctuated by a joyful, recurring refrain that captures the magic of Christmas in the Lone Star State, while encouraging readers to embrace family, community, and tradition in their own celebrations.
