5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this book!, January 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: North Country Christmas (PAWS IV) (Paperback)

This is a book about a different kind of Christmas story. The setting and characters are magical and fun. The illustrations are fantastic and bright. I think this book would be good to read or be read to for someone ages one to ninty years old. This book can be read by someone nine years old. I know because I'm nine and I read it. This book taught me a new way to look at St. Nick and how people celebrate Christmas in another part of the country. I really enjoyed this book and I think everyone should read it too.

This review is from: North Country Christmas (Hardcover)

I have started to gather regional christmas stories for my neice (like Cajun Night before)and this is an excellent addition! Yet again the sled is pulled by another animal - this time sled dogs! And the gifts left on each doorstep are northern Lights... Show a child another way to celebrate the holidays!
