This was such a cute festive read! Whilst I’m obviously not the target audience for this I still enjoyed it. It did feel slightly too long though, I’m not sure it needed to be 380 pages. The artwork throughout the book was beautiful and full of Christmas charm! I appreciated some of the topics covered here; divorced parents and differently abled children. It’s always nice to see representation in children’s books. I felt it could’ve done without some of the elves songs as these got slightly annoying, but again maybe that’s because I’m not the target age.
