I really want to like this book.  The message is be careful what you post online or what you send to others.  The message was nice, the illustrations were excellent, but I still wasn’t thrilled.  The cadence was there but the rhymes were harsh.  And once again I just didn’t care for the story.

Another great book in the series.  We don’t know what they are building but it’s a big job and will take teamwork to make everything come out right.

This was a sweet story of 3 bears trying to replace a broken seashell.  Their journey is not without its ups and downs but it all works out in the end.  The story was lovely, and the illustrations perfectly matched.  However, it is a bit long for story time.

This book is super predictable, but I liked it anyway.  The animals are getting ready for the story of Jesus' play and everyone gets a part.  But what about Giraffes? He is too tall and too big to plant any big parts. He just wants to be a star like everyone else.  This was a nice christmas story and it was religious, but not super religious. 

This story was a joy to read.  The rhymes, the cadence were perfect.  It read so smoothly it was like a fun children's song.  I loved it all, including the illustrations.  Add this one to your classroom or your holiday reads.

The next animated christmas special needs to be made from this book.  Hear that @Netflix.  This book.  The story has heart.  A little boy accidentally breaks a very special christmas ornament and learns that bigger isn’t always better.  Loved the story and loved the artwork.

Not bad.  I wish the author hadn’t tried to rhyme as often as they did.  They were at nicest harsh.  Part of the story is typical 12 days of christmas cadence, then the other parts are not, and that is where the author rhymes.  It just doesn’t work.  But at the same time, i liked the story and thought it was fun (but that maybe because I myself am a big sister with a Sammy (or Danny) of my own.

How did Santa get his flying reindeer?  Why from a traveling circus of course.  With a little help from a brave reindeer named Dasher, who was brave enough to take the first step.

If you are paying attention to cadence, then this story ends too soon. It’s a fine story and children will love the illustrations. They rhymes work even when interrupted with sound words.  This book isn’t bad, but not one I would replace when the library copy gets worn. 

This book isn’t bad. More of a message book.  Girls can be anything and this book goes on to show what exactly everything means.
