Now typically, I do not hate on children s books too harshly for they are written for the small minds of children however, Merry Christmas, Ollie makes absolutely no since whatsoever During the entire story you have the friends of little Ollie preparing for Christmas, while Ollie himself just whines about the fact that it is not time yet for the big day This continues on for page after page, until the end when Christmas does arrive There is not really a point to this story line, no true...
The kids liked the refrain about waiting, but they didn t seem to engage with the story, and neither did I To be fair, it was a cold read for me, which does make it a little tougher since I don t know what to anticipate Still, I don t think I d use this one again.
Not nearly as cute as the Easter one Ollie impatiently waits for Father Christmas Goose to come He comes That s about it Adorable illustrations as always Wouldn t bother using.
We love Ollie
cute for 3 4year olds
A toddler and up easy reader about friends goosie and gertie waiting for Christmas to come cute
The end is a bit anticlimactic, but the goslings are all very cute This is sure to be a hit with kids who are very impatient for Christmas to arrive.
Skye loves this series and these little goslings She slept with this book all week, sometimes falling asleep while looking at the pictures.
