The Crunchy, Munchy Christmas Tree (Harry and Emily Adventures)
Kindergarten-Grade 2-Cat siblings Harry and Emily must defer some of the pleasures of Christmas when a snowstorm prevents the family from driving to Grandma and Grandpa's, but they discover the beauty of a living tree covered with snow and icicles and the joy of making popcorn and cranberry decorations for deer to eat. The chief delight is in the characters' natural dialogue as they interact, despite restrictions imposed by the beginning-reader format. As in the other titles in the series, naive ink-with-watercolor illustrations help decode the text and add a light, childlike quality to the book.-S.
