Book Description

September 25, 2012 4 - 8 years

Why is there a great big tree in the house?!?
And why are all these boxes underneath it?
Hey—what is that?!? Where did it come from?
Uh-oh. This isn't good. . . . This isn't good at all!

In this hilarious follow-up to the New York Times bestselling picture book Charlie the Ranch Dog, Ree Drummond—the Pioneer Woman herself—delivers a story about getting into the holiday spirit and finding the good in all. Even though Charlie may not have put a kitty on his Christmas list, he learns that if you keep an open heart, new friends can come in unexpected packages.

5.0 out of 5 stars We LOVE Charlie!! September 27, 2012
By Nicole
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
My daughters, 3 years and 13 months both love Charlie! I have been an avid reader of Ree's blog for years now, and am also greatly enjoying her show on The Food Network. It is the only "grown up show" that I can watch with my kids and not worry about questionable material. I also trust these books! They are fun, with beautiful illustrations. I purchased this book on Amazon and the price was GREAT for a new book. Christmas in September??.. yes please. My daughter actually sleeps next to both of her Charlie books, wedged near her pillow. We also have a rascally basset hound in our family and my hope is that he, too is as loveable and well behaved as Charlie is. This book will make a great addition to our collection of Christmas books that we love to read on Christmas Eve (it's our tradition). Thanks to Ree for helping add to the magic of the holidays...Lord knows, my husband is grateful for the wonderful recipes she has provided over the years, too!!

5.0 out of 5 stars This made Buck happy! October 18, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was able to keep my grandson, Buck, for five days in September. I bought Charlie The Ranch Dog to have at my house, to read to him during those five days. I quickly lost count of the number of times he brought me that book to read. I'm guessing it was well over 100 times. He loved the book! When I was to keep Buck again in late September, I took Charlie & The Christmas Kitty with me. I had planned it to be a Christmas Gift but couldn't wait that long. Once again, Charlie captivated Buck. We were together just for the weekend and I read Charlie and The Christmas Kitty to him multiple times. The best part of reading these two books to Buck has been that I enjoy them too. I love Ree's tongue-in-cheek writing style, and each sentence lends itself to using broad voice tones. I highly recommend both of these books to anyone interested in reading to a child. Buck is 18 months old and already is a bookworm.

4.0 out of 5 stars cuteness September 27, 2012
Format:Hardcover
A loveable book to read for young and old alike.

Begin your gift-buying now for Christmas because Ree Drummond is a wonderful children's writer. This book is so bright and cheery, even with Charlie's bad attitude in the beginning towards the new kitty. This is an excellent book that will entertain children and inspire them to get along with everyone. I could really picture Charlie on the farm and feel the snowy, cold winter breeze. Brrr!!!

Even if a kitty was not on Charlie the "King of the Ranch's" wish list, he realizes friends turn up in unexpected packages. I found myself resisting to laugh at some of Charlie's tricks to try and get rid of the kitty.

P.S. Can you find the chipmunk on the book cover? He's gonna appear on mostly every-page in the book. It will be a fun scavenger hunt to find him!

Ree Drummond sent me the above book for review purposes. She will allow me to keep the book. I have no other connection to and have received no other compensation from Ree Drummond.
