- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2025I have two great nieces that live in another state. To stay connected we face time and chat regularly. I buy a seasonal book, record myself reading it, and send the book and video to them. As they’re not yet reading age, they love to read along with me and look at the pictures.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024My son (4) LOVES this book and asks to read it again and again. It’s an adorable tale with a great message for any reader.
Worth noting: Myself, my husband, and the grandparents all had the same reaction when reading it to him for the first time (“Awww, wow! That’s so sweet! What a great story! I really liked that!”). Plus, the illustrations are beautiful, captivating, and add value to the storytelling experience. 10/10 recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024This a beautiful story about determination and dreaming big! As a teacher, I'm always trying to keep the days leading up to winter break as magical as possible. There is so much that can be done with this book- the vocabulary is rich and can be used for grammar sleigh (noun), rickety (adjective), etc. This book is perfect for retelling or summarizing, analyzing character, or identifying theme. It is the perfect addition to a holiday library.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2024Undeniably beautifully illustrated with a sweet meaningful story. I like the message alot.
Like some other reviewers mention, it's very wordy. There are a couple spots of improper grammar/word usage which kind of trips me up as I'm reading it, but I don't mind so much. It's still going to be a great addition to my sons christmas book collection :)
