Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1–Lily and Blue Kangaroo are getting ready to celebrate the toy's first Christmas. In fact, the youngster is absolutely convinced that the entire holiday is being organized primarily in honor of her friend. Blue is confused by all the fuss, and more than a little concerned when he realizes that he doesn't have anything to give Lily. Never fear. Father Christmas appears in the fireplace and has just the right gift in his bag. Any child who has ever been overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the holiday season will relate to Blue's dilemma. Attractive scenes of various holiday activities enjoyed by Lily's loving and creative family abound in this tale of friendship touched by a little bit of magic.–M. A.

She’s made cards for everyone, helped decorate the house, and put presents beneath the tree. One special present is just for Blue Kangaroo. Blue Kangaroo wishes he had a present just for Lily. But he doesn’t. So on Christmas Eve, Blue Kangaroo lies awake, worrying. Can anyone help him find the perfect gift for Lily?

5.0 out of 5 stars First Christmas, Best Christmas, January 5, 2007
By Gwynne C. Spencer (Monmouth, Oregon) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Blue Kangaroo has never had Christmas before, so everything is new--the tree, the garlands, the gifts, the stockings. As people's comments accumulate ("This will be Blue Kangaroo's first Christmas tree/stocking/gift/etc") little Blue Kangaroo feels unable to match the largesse. When Father Christmas comes to visit, the reciprocity problem is solved very neatly with a stocking, a blue heart on the tree and a plate of cookies shared. All children who have been whipped to a buying frenzy by relentless television commercials would be nicely enriched by this sweetly restrained story. Don't forget to share a plate of cookies and a glass of milk with your young reader at the end.
