Uncles and Antlers (Richard Jackson Books (Atheneum Hardcover)) 2 reviews Lisa Wheeler, Brian Floca
Atheneum/Richard Jackson Books, 2004
"I love this book!" says my 4 year old
+ Antlers Away!
Both my son and I really enjoy this rhyming Christmas/numbers book in which Octavia, a young reindeer, describes her seven uncles (from Uncle Uno to Uncle Sven). My personal favorite is Uncle Duce, an Elvis impersonator, while my son seems to prefer Uncle Quint, a basketball star.

True to the movie, but nice and easy for Preschoolers.
+ "I want to be a dentist!"
My 4 year old watched the classic Rudolph movie, and immediately wanted a book of the movie that we could read together. I am glad it was available through Amazon. She enjoyed it immensely. There wasn't an overload of words which could lose most preschoolers, and the story is true to the movie. ...

Love this book!
+ Very Cute + Great pictures, great story
If you're looking for the story about Hermie, the Abdominal, Yukon Corneilius and the Island of Misfit Toys, this is NOT your book! This book is the original story written in 1939. It is written in poetry form and it is beautiful. It is very well illustrated and a definite keeper. My kids loved ...

A Holly Jolly Christmas! (Shaped Coloring Book) 1 review Golden Books
Golden Books, 2004
Fine, but the so-called story is pretty poor
I know it's just a colouring book, but really, the story line is pretty bad. It's sort of the Rudolph story (as in the song) but has some uncommon tangents, and it's really not very well written. Obviously one can just ignore the text and focus on the pictures, which is what we've done.

The Reindeer Hunters: 2 3 reviews Joan Wolf
Dutton Adult, 1994
Excellent read
+ Not as epic as the first 2 in the series
This is an excellent book for those who want a "light" prehistoric read. Although Wolf lacks detail concerning prehistoric aspects of everyday life, the story is is well written and very entertaining.

The Reindeer Christmas 3 reviews Moe Price
Voyager Books, 1997
Beautifully illustrated!
+ What a great book! + A holiday charmer for all ages!
Without a doubt, Morozumi's illustrations are the most beautiful we have seen. The story tells of Santa's decision to use reindeer instead of other animals to make his deliveries. Read this book to see how they were chosen. This continues to be a favorite in our household.
