Toddler-PreS–A lively cast of animal characters get ready for Christmas in this sweet, rhyming tale about the true joy of the holiday. Each animal is a bit lonely as the holiday draws near, but once they are hugged by other animal friends, everything seems so much better. Shaped peek-through pages make the book entertaining, because as readers turn the sturdy pages, the animal seen alone on the page is then grouped together with friends for a hug. The story ends with all the animals together promoting true friendship and a feeling of togetherness. Illustrations bring the different animals and their habitats to life. VERDICT Recommended as a general purchase for a holiday collection for the youngest readers. The unique layout of pages will certainly be appealing to toddlers and beyond. --School Library Journal
