My Review:
This was a fun little Christmas story that Evelyn and I really enjoyed reading together. It’s perfect for this time of the year! Evelyn actually read this entire book to me herself which made the experience even more special, and will definitely be one that we continue to read regularly right through to Christmas.
Evelyn’s Thoughts:
I enjoyed this book. I liked being able to feel parts of the book, and my favourite part was Santa in his underpants trimming his beard because it made me laugh. Santa was silly for always forgetting his snacks. I liked that the elves were doing things for Santa too.
*Thank you to Kaleidoscopic for our copy of the book, in exchange for an honest review*
