I RECEIVED A DRC FROM THE PUBLISHER VIA EDELWEISS+. THANK YOU.

My Review: A book ideal for the lap-reader who needs a bit of pattern-recognition practice. It's the Where's Waldo? of the Yuletide. The holiday theme can woo the excited kid to settle in and enjoy some carefully hidden good-for-them knowledge acquisition.

The fun little facts about the countries will give the reader a chance to sneak in some education, or can be left aside if the kid's squirmy...the illustrations are, i think, just right to keep a lap-reader engaged but not overstimulated.

On St. Nicholas Night, the tree goes up, the mugs of hot chocolate magically appear, and a big, warm lap beckons after all that excitement...perfect time to find Santa around the world.
