READ BEFORE GIVING TO A CHILD
Format: Paperback
Five stars in hopes it is listed at the top. PLEASE read before you give this to your child! The art work is gorgeous, a very gift able book! I got this for my dragon loving 11yr old as a Christmas book to enjoy in December. Let me just tell you a quick run down of the book.... this child is the only child left unadopted at an orphanage run by a nasty woman and her evil dog. The woman is annoyed by the child and as punishment she cancels Christmas and puts a chain around her ankle and locks her in a dog kennel (yes it says this many times, not simply implied but directly said it and a drawing of it). Finally a little Christmas magic and glimmer of joy when a snow dragon frees her for one quick adventure. That portion is a cute story but it's a very short part in the book. When the adventure is over the child is snuck back in and ankle chain back on and back in the dog kennel. The mean woman returns and says it's time to play a game called "chase".....then the book details what this game is.... this mean woman makes the orphans hold bones and tells them to run, then her evil dog is allowed to chase the kids (scary, not a fun dog frolicking with happy children).....finally at the end the little girl and her sweet dancing dog are adopted. But this book is so sad, this is not a sweet story or Christmas fun. I'm returning the book bc I feel like it will make my child sad instead of enjoy a cute Christmas story. If you are an adoptive parent or a foster parent this may really trigger your children, any child who is sensitive would probably not like this book. However every child is different so for some kids they may be less bothered and just enjoy the dragon and cute last page with the new family walking away together. But read the book for yourself before giving it to a child. I'm 37 with no history of childhood trauma myself and I found this book to be a bit much. I use to be a foster mom and I really wanted to write a review so parents would understand what's in this book bc I almost didn't read it before giving it to my child for Christmas! Glad I read it! The story could have been adorable if they let the dragon be the main part of the story. Not the abuse the child is suffering in the orphanage.

Lovely Winter Solstice Book
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
My son loved this winter solstice story! Told by the perspective of the animals, each one brings a little something to share with the others as they decorate a tree together with their items and it's exactly what I wanted in a winter solstice story for my 4 year old. Not too complex which is ideal for younger children, not soly describing the change of season. I feel like this is more of the heart of winter solstice, coming together with friends and family, being generous and having gratitude, and over all sharing light with each other in the longest night of the year. My son's favorite page is definitely the fold out!
