Everyone has some "Grumpy Reindeer" in their life come Christmastime. (For me, it's my brother). But this sweet story about kindness and love, even when it doesn't come naturally, will be one families will enjoy reading during the busy holiday season.

Personally, I thought the writing could have been better. It lacked some oomph. However, I know that all holiday books market EXTREMELY well and not many care about the style and flow and depth.

I received this book on Netgalley in return for an honest review. ( )

One of Santa's reindeer keeps to himself and doesn't want any friends or anything. He is just a big grump. But when Santa asks him for help, he learns that doing for others makes life better. I am more used to the bigger comprehensive books from DK, but this one does NOT disappoint.
The illustrations by Clare Wilson are clearly delightful, colorful, vibrant, and very imaginative.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age and also for ESL readers.
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from DK/DK Children via NetGalley. Thank you! ( )
