My Review:

Going to be real and just say it.... I am disappointed this is a zondervan book. I may have had high expectations that somehow the author would incorporate the true meaning of Christmas- JESUS Birth but no mention of Jesus. The tiny stable near the Christmas tree in one picture made me get excited that Santa would learn about Jesus, but nope! Instead Santa is left looking for his Christmas gift. Maybe I need to write the story where Santa hears about Jesus instead??

The rhymes are cute and Mrs. Clause writes a nice hand written card and homemade gift if you need a couple more positives.

Thanks Zondervan for sending me this book for free in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this and all opinions expressed are 100% my own.

Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...
