Title: Not for toddlers
Product review: After reading my two-year-old daughter this book, I was heartbroken to hear her say, "I no like Santa." She asked me to never read it again because she thought the characters and the reindeer were scary. I don't blame her. The reindeer are wild-eyed and this version of Santa has a glimmer in his eye that's more mischievous than joyful. He's actually creepy in some of the spreads. This Santa looks like he's breaking and entering when he's about to go down a chimney. I'm not kidding! The illustrations also have a side story that's unrelated to the verse -- something about a gift for the father from his childhood or something? Anyway, if I could do it over, I would have spent more for a book featuring that jovial, friendly Santa that I've come to associate with Christmas. Please learn from my $6.99 mistake.
