Oh my thoughts on this book are varied.
It's a great take--I mean, Christmas has gone commercial and the reminder of its heart is so crucial. Readers will recognize drones, cyber attacks, etc. It's truly a 21st Century tale.
But I really hated it. Okay, so hate is a strong word. Yet for a book that promotes heart....I didn't feel as if this book has it. The writing was stiff. I wasn't engaged in the story. It felt disjointed. The write-up was more promising than the finished product itself.
There will be a place for it in the library collection. But will I add it to my own--that would be a no.

Oh, dear. I really liked the idea of this story! But the execution is disjointed. I actually went back to see if I'd skipped over pages somehow, as some of the plot points seem incomplete. And in the end, I wasn't quite sure what happened to resolve the story.
Heeheehee, admittedly, I'd feel silly asking someone to explain a children's picture book to me.

It's a nice little ecological message that unfolds in a slow and obvious but satisfying manner. The clean, simple art helps it succeed over the very similar Winnie The Pooh: Somebody's Treasure that I panned a while back due to its silly artistic choices.
(Pooh Project: Phase 2! I've managed to catalog all the shorter Pooh books my family owns (see the list here). While I work through few remaining longer Pooh books we own, I'm missing my daily dose of Pooh, so I'm going to start seeking out some of the Pooh books I don't own – yet – from libraries IRL and online. See the reviews here.)… (mehr)
