So much fun to read!!

I have several of the santa books from Julie Sykes and Tim Warnes and they are so much fun to read. the preschoolers ask again and again to read them. Santa has lots of silly accidents. Santa's animal friends give him encouragement and freindship and sometimes get into some trouble of their own. In this book, santa wakes up late, trips and falls over his pants, can't find the reindeer in the woods, gets hit by a snowball by the reindeer, who are having a snow ball fight, crashes his sled that becomes stuck and then is rescued by a large beautiful horse on the farm while a rooster shouts out encouragement. Santa gets to open the last present, which is an alarm clock, ofcourse.

Not just a Christmas book

This is a fun romp with the jovial fellow. Having over-slept, will he make it in time to deliver all the presents? Brightly illustrated, heaps of fun. Young children in the throes of Santa-believe and excitement will love it. (And what would the reindeer and other animals give a Santa who didn't wake up on time? )
