About the Author
Kay Thompson (1909-1998) was a singer, dancer, vocal arranger, and coach of many MGM musicals in the 1940s.
The Eloise character grew out of the voice of a precocious six-year-old that Miss Thompson put on to amuse her friends. Collaborating with Hilary Knight on what was an immediate bestseller, Kay Thompson became a literary sensation when Eloise was published in 1955. The book has sold more than two million copies to date. Kay Thompson and Hilary Knight created four more Eloise books, Eloise in Paris, Eloise at Christmas, Eloise in Moscow, and Eloise Takes a Bawth.
Hilary Knight, son of artist-writers Clayton Knight and Katharine Sturges, was educated at the Art Students League, where he studied with Reginald Marsh. Besides the Eloise books, Hilary Knight has illustrated more than fifty books for children, six of which he wrote himself.
He lives and works in New York City, not far from The Plaza Hotel.

This review is from: Eloise Decorates for Christmas (Ready-to-Read Level 1) (Paperback)
My daughter is really enjoying reading this story and the others about this character. She has been reading the two I bought for her since they arrived and is even behaving in order to keep them and eventually get more.

Christmas - Eloise-style!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Eloise Decorates for Christmas (Ready-to-Read Level 1) (Paperback)
My daughter read through all the Eloise Level 1 series of readers a month ago, and we revisited them recently because she told me she missed stories about Eloise! Well, the actual collection of Eloise stories (not the early readers) are still beyond my five-and-a-half year old's reading ability, but these make for great entertainment and revision!
In "Eloise Decorates for Christmas", Eloise gets a bit carried away when she is inspired to extend her decorating "skills" to the rest of the building she lives in. The story captures Eloise's fun-loving nature and the illustrations enhance the text. Typical of level one readers, this book has slightly more challenging vocabulary, e.g. "delivers", "delivering", "decorators", "decorating", and longer sentence structure. Young children who love Eloise and her adventures will adore this series of early readers.
