APPEALS TO: MANY
Poor Santa has squished and lopsided butt problems from sitting in his sleigh too long. Everyone jumps into action to try and help, but Grandma ends up saving the day with the perfect solution for Santa's derriere.
McMillan is back at it with another one of her butt books. The illustrations are colorful and bold. I was glad to see they are large enough for a room full of students to enjoy and the rhyming story is short enough to hold the youngest readers' attention. The repeated use of the word "butt" will surely garnish plenty of giggles. I look forward to sharing this book as a read-a-loud.
