BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SOME
Over the years, as the village grows into a town, and then into a small city, the old sleigh brings warmth and light to everyone. Even when something breaks, more than one good thing comes of it.
I love the Pumphrey’s style and that they celebrate traditional things in a loving way. This time, however, I had a problem with the continuity - the young boy should have grown up through the old sleigh’s story, providing the passage of time. And nothing was said about the horse that leads the sleigh - doing as much or more work than the sleigh itself. Charming, but my adult brain just can’t turn off the inconsistencies this time.
