review:
'Santa, Please Bring Me a Gnome' by An Swerts with illustrations by Eline Lindenhulzen is a fun picture book about a little girl with a specific request for Christmas.
Tess writes a letter to Santa and specifically asks him to bring her a gnome for Christmas. The adults around her seem unfazed by her request and even seem convinced that her request will be granted. Her grandfather makes some little furniture for the new gnome. Her grandmother makes a little blanket. When Christmas finally arrives, will Santa fulfill his promise?
The story brought me many smiles. From the very cute illustrations, to the emphatic belief of the main character, to the knowing adults who support this child. The book is as warm as a cup of cocoa on a Winter evening.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Clavis Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
