Auntie Claus by Elise Primavera

This is another Christmas book from the library. I liked the story and the illustrations were OK. This is about a little girl who learns the lesson, "It is far better to give than it is to receive!" My problem with the book is its length. I suppose this is just personal preference, but this is a bed-time story, as are all picture books like this. This book took us almost twenty minutes to get through. The story was good, but not twenty minutes good.

I do like the Christmas book helping children understand that Christmas should be about giving, not getting.

Summary: "When her eccentric Auntie Claus leaves for her annual business trip, Sophie stows away in her luggage, travels with her to the North Pole, and discovers that her aunt is really Santa's sister and helper."

Format: paper
Read/don't read: read... if you have time.

You can find this book at Amazon.com here: Auntie Claus
