A Fun Book For Kids!,
By Children's Book Collector (Midwest, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Santa's New Suit (Hardcover)
Santa needs a new suit. His old ones are torn, or stained, or too tight. So, a week before Christmas, like any good shopper, he heads to town to look for a suit. The stores he visits have clever names like 'Nip and Tux' (a tuxedo shop) and 'Costumania'. When Santa arrives back at the North Pole in his new suit, the elves, the reindeer and even Mrs. Santa cannot believe their eyes! Ms. Rader employs the use of speech bubbles to show the surpised, often comic, reaction of her characters. Needless to say, all turns out well in the end and the last page of the book is a satisfying conclusion to the story. a great addition to any kids' (or adult's) Holiday collection.
