The creators of the "Mo's Nose" series, author, Margaret Hyde and illustrator, Amanda Giacomini, have released Mo Smells the Holidays, their highly anticipated third book in the series of collectible books.
Mo, based on a real life rescued dog, takes readers of all ages on a "scentsational" adventure through vibrant holiday scents and hues from the first leaves of fall to the fireworks of New Year's Eve!
Mo's journey through the holiday season emphasizes giving rather than receiving as Mo brings Halloween treats to his friends at the animal shelter and lends a paw at a local soup kitchen.
Mo and his new-found four- and two-legged friends sniff their way through a kaleidoscope of festive aromas and discover the true spirit of holiday giving.
In this full-sized picture book, readers interactively experience seven classic holiday scents including deliciously chewy caramels, regal pine, rich gingerbread, dark chocolate, cotton candy, green apple and freshly baked pumpkin pies through a Hint of Scent feature.

Mo Smells the Holidays: A Scentsational Journey
1. I saw another librarian reading this book at a training and thought, "This book is so cool! I must have it!"
2. I started pulling books for my Chinese New Year-themed storytime and saw that we actually DID have the book at my library!
3. I used the book as the opener for my storytime, and, just as I did, the kids loved it.
Lucky New Year! is a simple pop-up that incorporates some basics about Chinese New Year. You can make mom sweep the floor, pull on the chopsticks to reveal the stretchy long noodles, and even scratch 'n' sniff the orange. (Here i just passed around an orange for the kids to smell.) I had the kids take turns pulling and pushing flaps, and they were all duly impressed by the end, which is revealed to be a big dragon dance. The second to last pop-up, in which you make the lion costume open its eyes, also got a big "wow!" It's actually quite impressive how much material this book covers, and it's short enough to make it suitable for a preschool and up storytime. I was going to use a nonfiction book to tell the kids about various New Year's traditions, but I didn't really need to because of this book and the other picture book I read.
Ages 3 and up, though you'll want to be careful of the pop-up/flaps with the little kids (I read this to some 6-8 year olds--plus some older siblings--and it was enough to hold their attention, especially since I let them pull the flaps.)
Great for a Chinese New Year storytime
