This Advent calendar filled with a book a day JUST WENT ON SALE FOR 2022. Last year they were a HUGE hit and sold out within DAYS so I just wanted to let you know…
Choosing the best Advent calendar each holiday season for a countdown to Christmas can be a challenge. After finding this Advent calendar that opens to a full story book every single day, our choice is obvious! 24 books as a count down to Christmas will make December so much more fun!
Limited Supply of Advent Calendar
These Advent calendars will be in limited supply and our Kids Activities Blog community and Quirky Momma FB page have already purchased a BUNCH…
I got this in the mail a week before it was released for sale in 2021 and got SO excited. It is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time and know how it will be used daily this holiday season even though my kids are older!

Usborne Advent Calendar Book Collection
This is a huge book of books! This is how the countdown to Christmas book collection is described:
Behind each window of this calendar is a classic story to share as the excitement for Christmas builds. Once the big day comes, you’ll have a little library to treasure forever.
–Usborne Books
This giant well-crafted book measures 12 inches x 16 1/2 inches and comes with a storage sleeve that slips entirely over the Advent calendar which would be great if you want to store it for the next year. The sleeve is also where the included books are listed so if you don’t want the kids to see what books might be next, you can remove it before giving it to them.

Advent Calendar Opening Windows
Each day, kids can open a window or door in the Advent calendar to find the book for that day. The calendar is created with thick colorful cardboard with perforations around each numbered window and a cut out perfect for little fingers.
The numbered calendar doors obscure the title of the books until the window is opened.
You could store the read books back in the doors or make a little book display next to the calendar as the countdown continues.
The Advent calendar is free-standing and could be integrated into any holiday decor.
