BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
This classic story has been reprinted with 11 short Christmas stories illustrated with charm. Lowly the Worm is a character you will see in all the stories helping everyone from Santa to other animal friends get out of Holiday predicaments. The final 2 pages have a Christmas word illustration and a song with music included of the well know song Silent Night.
I was a huge Richard Scarry fan as a child. The illustrations are still relevant and timeless. The stories are silly and charming which is what makes it such a classic. My only criticism is Santa doesn't have a beard in the illustration. I guess he is a bear though. It just threw me off a little bit. I like how the text and the illustrations run together in seeable sections so you know what to read next. Let's share this timeless tale with the next generation.
