💭THOUGHTS💭

I saw this on Netgalley and thought that it looked like a fun Christmas book. It was a ready to read one so I was able to make a start on it instantly.

The writing was in rhyme and when I got to the end I wanted to keep on going. It had a great flow to it. It certainly felt like it went a lot quicker than some other books, which I took to be a positive sign. There wasn’t a fixed rhyming pattern or set length of text, but this didn’t seem to matter. Nothing felt forced or jarred.

The word difficulty varied, which meant that the book could grow with the child. As there were a lot of words on each page I would say that it was aimed at more confident readers.

The text was in a clear font with a couple of words picked out to be slightly bigger. The text was either black or white depending on the colour of the background. The colour of the background was based upon where the text was on the picture. The text was in a block on each page so you knew where to read (except on one page).

The pictures were great. They were bright and bold with a fair amount of detail, but not too much. They were certainly eye catching and entertaining.

Overall an amusing Christmas story and one that I enjoyed reading.

⭐ Rated 5/5⭐
