review:
'Santa's Countdown to Christmas: 24 Days of Stories' by Kim Thompson with illustrations by Élodie Duhameau is a series of 24 short stories for each day in December.

Throughout the course of the month, we see Santa and his team getting ready for the big night. Elves are busy, Santa is working out, and the reindeer and sleigh are also getting ready. Santa has to review the naughty and nice list, and there is one special present he needs to find. Will it all get done in time?

The stories all span a couple pages, with most of the space being taken by illustration. The date is given on each page, so it could be a quick bedtime story leading up to Christmas. I loved the illustrations which have lots of little details. I also loved Santa's alliterative exclamations like 'jumpin' gingerbread!' and 'leapin' lollipops!' There are tons of those and they made me smile. This would be a fun pre-Christmas read.

I received a review copy of this ebook from CrackBoom! Books, Chouette Publishing, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
