A middle grade Christmas novel illustrated with Child’s appealing sketch-and-collage designs. Illustrations are playful, storyline is entertaining, messages are positive, ending is happy. Given Clarice Bean’s popularity, this will probably be a holiday book that will circulate, especially among young middle grade readers looking for something seasonal.
Recommend for ages 8-12.
