Gift-Wrapped Picture Book Characters Quiz

This quiz was originally published on Picture Book Den in 2018.

When I was a child, part of the excitement of the run-up to Christmas was shaking and squeezing the gift-wrapped presents beneath our Christmas tree in an attempt to deduce what was inside. For this festive quiz, I’ve gift-wrapped 10 classic picture book characters. Since shaking and squeezing are not options, you’ll have to work out who they are from their outlines alone. How many can you identify?

For more Christmas fun, may I suggest CHRISTMAS STREET, my lift-the-flap concertina alphabet book illustrated by Ingela P Arrhenius.

Or, for a “darkly delightful” Christmas picture book, check out THE SANTA TRAP by me and Poly Bernatene.
