Still sweet
My five year old enjoyed this, but I found that I should have left it at "Bear Snores On". Just a bit too similar. Love the illustrations though!

Grows on you
I did not like this book the first time I read through it. But the first time I read it to my son, he liked it and I liked it better than I had the first time through. He's had me read it to him several times now, and the book has really grown on me. It's a quiet little holiday tale with some...
