It's Christmas Eve and
for the first time ever, Santa's naughty list is empty! With a terrible
blizzard raging outside, how will Santa be able to deliver Christmas
magic to every single home before morning?(goodreads summary)
It is Christmas Eve and a storm is coming. Without a moment to spare, Santa must get everything ready in time for Christmas morning. No one has made the naughty list this year and the elves are hurrying to finish up the last of the extra gifts. Santa feels a little overwhelmed and not sure how he will get everything delivered. But under the tree is tiny Tinsel Mouse to the rescue. He is watching and hoping Santa will let him join his sleigh this year. Tinsel tells Santa that while he is unpacking his bag, he can fill the holiday stockings with good things and sweets!
This is the perfect story to start off the holiday season. It would make a wonderful read aloud with the bold Christmas colors and rhyming text that flows easily. With the Christmas Eve storm and Santa's extra workload, Tinsel the Mouse is so thoughtful offering to come to his assistance making sure he stuffs all the stockings in time for the big day. The story shows caring and generosity making Tinsel the best Santa's helper. I also liked that it is a great size and shape that will fit in a stocking. It is a wonderful book to cozy up to with a hot cocoa and will spread holiday cheer. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-7.~
