We all know what Santa has done as an adult, but what was he like as a baby and child. How did he become the jolly elf who delivers presents to all the children in the world? An imaginative and charming tale about what Santa was like as a baby and a small child. Santa stars as a cute baby with a gorgeous Ho,ho,ho (no baby babbling for him) before becoming a toddler/young child who got even more enjoyment out of giving his toys and presents away than receiving him. He loved red and wanted to wear it all the time. He had a best friend who was short who loved making toys. Even though they were different, they we accepted by all the other kids. Santa's parents go through what all parents do in trying to figure out what he will become as he grows older. Of course they are thrilled when he grows up and becomes exactly what he is, the wonderful Spirit of Christmas, Santa Claus. A Christmas story about Santa for any and all to add to their bookshelves. Thanks to Netgalley for my copy in exchange for an unbiased review. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. This was a delightful book with endearing illustrations. I will admit that I chose it based on the pictures. I was happy that the story was also adorable. I enjoyed reading it to my son in preparation for his first Christmas. He is eight weeks old so I don't know what he thought of the story but he thoroughly enjoyed the book as I pointed out some of the most entertaining parts of the illustrations (ie: baby Santa's rosy cheeked bottom as he stands in front of the refrigerator to cool off, and the nine reindeer in the picture that immediately follows the line that says he trained "eight reindeer" - my son smiled and laughed as I counted them over and over again). I love this book and look forward to reading it with him a few more times this year but, mostly, for next year when he will understand the story. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. When Santa Was a Baby is a cute story and is a fun addition to our collection of Christmas picture books. The pages are strong board, and should hold up to small fingers. The story presents an origin story for Santa, showing him growing up in a "normal" family with his gifts and personal quirks developing over time. The language is simple, with a pleasant amount of repetition that will make it fun to read aloud. The artwork is whimsical, and fit well with the story.keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Auszeichnungen
"Santa's parents think their little one is absolutely wonderful, even though he has a booming voice instead of a baby's gurgle, loves to stand in front of the refrigerator, gives his birthday presents away, trains his hamsters to pull a matchbox sleigh ... and has an unusual interest in chimneys. The adorably funny portrait of an oddball kid who fulfills his destiny--and two very proud parents."-- From Amazon.com. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
