COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A Holiday Family Gathering submitted by Meginator on August 1, 2022, 3:48pm Anyone whose holiday gatherings tend toward the chaotic should appreciate this book, which shows an all-too-familiar scenario playing out when Santa and Mrs. Claus send out a pile of invitations for a holiday gathering at their North Pole home. Wacky hijinks ensue as personalities clash and a mysterious cousin indulges her apparent passion for kleptomania. The story isn’t particularly deep, as dePaola wisely resists the urge to paste a moral on top, but it is quite a bit of fun and may be a bit too realistic for some readers’ comfort.
