Very short.,

This review is from: Big Bob And The Winter Holiday Potato (level 3) (Hello Reader) (Paperback)
I wanted this book because I read a review that said it had a "liberal, left wing agenda." Sadly, I didn't see that, but maybe you had to be there.
A young girl creeped out by Santa Claus invents her own holiday gift-giver (Potato Claus) and writes a play about him that she and some friends put on for the class. There is a strange obsession with potatoes. This book is really short with big type and lots of color illustrations, so there isn't much room for the usual Pinkwater weirdness. It's still kind of nifty, though.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Short, Funny, and Clever,
This review is from: Big Bob and the Winter Holiday Potato (Hello Reader!) (School & Library Binding)
My daughter enjoyed this book quite a bit when she was little, and so did I. It was quirky and humorous. It can provide a platform for discussing differing beliefs, or it can just be a silly little story, whichever you prefer. My daughter is a teen now, and she still makes fond mention of this book.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Fun for all during the winter holidays,

This review is from: Big Bob And The Winter Holiday Potato (level 3) (Hello Reader) (Paperback)
I just read this story to a friend's little girl. I really enjoyed how the story was inclusive for all.
Potato Claus doesn't judge whether children are "good" or "bad" and gives presents to all. Potato Claus wishes people holiday wishes for all the wintertime holidays.
