The Holiday Heroes looks like a new series for children with The Holiday Heroes Save Christmas being the first. This series features all those lovely characters we associate with various stories of our youth; Santa, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy, A Leprechaun and a Witch. This one is about Santa getting very sick. What happens when Santa gets a high fever and sore throat on Christmas Eve? How in the world will the Christmas presents get delivered? This is where the Holiday Heroes come in! Santa Claus can count on his friends to help out. The only problem is that they don't know how to be Santa Claus, they only know how to be themselves and so things in certain ways. Will Santa be able to save Christmas by helping his friends do Christmas the right way? Will the heroes be able to undo what they have already done? This is a great story about helping out a friend in need. It shows how anyone can use their individual talents and gifts to cooperate with others to accomplish a goal or task. Kids will love this colorful and funny book, told in a graphic novel style, about all of their favorite holiday characters. A great book for a primary classroom or family library. The publisher, Sourcebooks Jabberwocky, generously provided me with a copy of this book upon request, to read. The rating, opinions and ideas shared are my own. ( )

This is a fun holiday story for the entire family. It is written as a picture book/graphic novel where the action is told by the narrator in gold boxes, the characters get their own speech bubbles, and the illustrations move not just page by page, but frame by frame. This is a very successful book that I see being a hit this holiday season. ( )
