NetGalley arc review
Cute Christmas book for any child. Cute graphics with a great little story that keeps your attention, and your children’s.
I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. Cute Christmas book about Chip, who has picked out the perfect gifts and is delivering them to his friends.
Chip has picked out presents for his friends.
Net Galley let me read this book (thank you). It has been published and you can get a copy now.
Chip is a pickup and he takes his presents around. Everybody loves their gifts! He's so happy!
This is a great story for little ones. I enjoyed it!
Chip is a green truck who is delivering gifts to his friends. They are all well thought out, showing his care and consideration for his friends. I read this to my two youngest grandchildren before Christmas and they loved it. The story was told in rhyming lines and had a great cadence to read aloud. The illustrations were so cute and adorable. I loved all the animals in this book, and their reactions to Chip. The story has a great message about friendship that I loved. We talked about caring for others, gifts we could give to show we loved them, such as doing things for others, making things etc. We also talked about gratitude for things we get from others. We read this more than once, and my granddaughter read some of the pages to her brother. A cute little story that I recommend to families.
Chip is a happy green truck who is out delivering Christmas gifts to his animal friends.
All gifts are well thought out by Chip and it makes him feel happy giving gifts that make his friends happy.
It’s a happy jolly story with lovely colourful pictures that will entice any child.
Oh my! What a delightful book! I read this one to my four year old nephew and he was hooked. The illustrations are great!
I loved this sweet picture book. Chip the truck is determined to deliver Christmas gifts to his friends. This is a great book to add to your Christmas picture Book collection.
I loved Chip the Truck and would be happy to meet and travel with him, if only he was real. It was adorable the way he chose specific gifts for all of this friends which had a special meaning and it was absolutely what each of them needed, including a pillow for the hibernating bear, perfume for the skunk, and an icepick for the lobster!. Everyone is delighted with their practical gifts and the love shines through. Beautiful rhymes which my grandchildren read with me again and again.
Christmas stories for children have always been a favorite in our family. To be completely honest, we read them both in summer and winter.
Maybe because my little ones want Christmas to last all year.
That's exactly why I chose this picture book. The cutely illustrated cover immediately caught my eye.
And believe me, we really enjoyed it. My two younger children enjoyed the repeating lines and were delighted by the interesting illustrations. My son was overjoyed to have a green truck as the main character. That caused us a bit of a problem. Where can we find to buy such a toy now?
And my preschooler got a great chance to practice reading.
Easy to remember and interesting, this picture book makes a great gift for any young child.
Highly recommended for all parents with young children.
Chip Delivers Christmas Gifts
by Julia Zheng
A wonderful picture book for young children by this talented author.
The story is told from the point of view of Chip, a happy green truck. People who have Christmas Eve off give presents to their animal friends.
He is doubly happy because everyone liked their gift and happily accepted it because it was so practical.
The book delights with its clear, simple illustrations that underscore this story of gift-giving at Christmas. I love that Chip likes to visit his friends in person with these thoughtful packages. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A lovely concept to share with your children, the true spirit of Christmas. Knowing your friends will help you know the gifts you need to improve your life and gain popularity.
A thoughtful gift makes both the giver and receiver happy. Lots of pictures and why we give gifts. The effort to provide them and the joy we get when these gifts are needed and appreciated.
Perfect for the Christmas season, a book that impresses both readers and listeners.

Another wonderful story book for young children from this talented author.
It is told from the perspective of Chip, a happy green truck. Who one Christmas Eve is off giving presents to his animal friends.
He is doubly happy because they all like their gifts and they were accepted with gratitude as they are all so practical.
The book is a delight with clear and simple illustrations re-enforcing this tale of bestowing gifts to others at Christmas.
I love that Chip is happy taking the trouble to personally visit his friends with these thoughtful packages. Beep Beep he proclaims along his route until all his presents are shared.
Such a lovely concept to share with children, the true spirit of Christmas. Knowing your friends to see what gifts they need to improve their lives and be well received.
A considered gift makes the giver and recipient both happy.
Plenty of pictures to talk about as well as why we give presents; go to an effort to deliver them and the joy we get when those gifts are needed and appreciated.
A book that fits well into the Christmas season and sure to delight both reader and listeners alike.
This was such a cute and fun read for the kids at Thanksgiving! They loved guessing what animal would come next and what gift they would get. All together this was a really cute take on a Christmas book for children. It is similar to Little Blue Truck but more fun! The illustrations and rhyming throughout were much loved as well!
I read this as an Arc thanks to Netgalley and QINGHONG ZHENG.
This simple little story embodies the meaning of Christmas: Giving!
The whole story is about Chip driving around on Christmas eve and delivering his carefully wrapped gifts to his friends, with no expectations for receiving a gift in return. How refreshing is that?
The book radiates feelings of happiness, love and the simple joy of giving to others.
It’s rare to find a book like that nowadays.
The bright primary colours and repetitive text will appeal to toddlers and pre-schoolers.
BUT, it’s also the repetitive text that makes it a wonderful choice for new readers. After repeated readings the pattern would be fairly easy to memorize. Most of the text variations are then supported by the illustrations.
Love this sweet book!
I read this book with my five year old daughter and she loved it, she is reading on her own so it was lovely that this was a book that she could read to me - it was a lovely family activity!
We loved the illustrations, they were lovely and really brought the story to life, it was a delightful story that had a wonderful end.
It was really well written and the story had a lovely flow to it and I loved the message of kindness.
It is 5 stars from me for this one - a fab Christmas read - very highly recommended!
The cutest Christmas storybook ever!!!!
Do not miss the chance to gift someone you know who enjoys colours, Christmas (of course!), storybooks, drawings and nighttime stories. This is the perfect one.
The writing rhymes and is full of gist! The illustrations are fun and fluffy. Oh the snow gave me all the fluffiest eye hugs! Love it.
Thank you, QINGHONG ZHENG, for the copy.
Thank you so much to QINGHONG ZHENG and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.
Chip the truck has a special delivery for Christmas and it’s gifts for all of his best friends. This was utterly adorable and so sweet I loved the repetitiveness of the story how he did the same thing and the friends responded in the same way, makes it an easy fun book young kids will enjoy.
Chip was so cute and thoughtful getting the most perfect gift for each of his friends, making them happy and their lives better during the harsh winter season. This is a perfect read with your children it will help them think what the important people in their lives might need for Christmas.
Really cute book with really great illustrations and a very sweet story, a really great holiday read.
This is such a charming holiday story! My kids enjoyed watching Chip deliver very thoughtful gifts to his animal friends. The verse is repetitive and great for younger kids, and the illustrations are lovely. I think this would definitely appeal to other fans of Little Blue Truck.
Thank you to BookBuzz and NetGalley for providing an advance reader copy for us to review. We enjoyed it!
