Summary: Christmas Trolls
Review: A wonderful children's story with beautifully done illustrations. This book can even keep a 2 year old entertained through the whole story. Clever plot line is amusing enough to make me chuckle as well. Well worth reading and owning.

Summary: Stunning illustrations; great ending
Review: This is one of our all time favorite children's books.

The illustrations are truly spectacular. Even grown ups will want to take a lot of time to study the intricacies of these pictures. The clothing depicted is especially interesting and beautiful.

The story is sweet, with a redemption rather than punishment ending. I always prefer when a children's story has a redemption ending. That's a better message to give our children: that everyone can be reformed if given the right opportunities.

You'll just get a really happy, warm feeling from this book.

Christmas Trolls is also suitable for very small children.

Summary: Our Jan Brett Favorite
Review: This is our favorite of Jan Brett's books so far. The moral weighs in a little heavily, but the illustrations are so magical tht they carry the story along almost effortlessly. My children and I have spent hours every Christmas looking at the troll's homes and their Christmas trees. The faithful porcupine silently carries a thread of the story in the half secret way makes Jan Brett's books so special.

Summary: Even better than Trouble
Review: We own several of Jan Brett's books. The artwork is superb, entertaining, and the delightful borders on the edges of her pages often provide insights into the plot of the story. As much as we love Jan Brett's other books, this book is by far one of our family favorites. It is both magical and meaningful, and has a strong plot line.

In Christmas Trolls, the delightful trolls from "The Trouble With Trolls" learn about Christmas...most importantly, that the spirit of Christmas is giving, not getting. In today's materialistic society which seems to create greedy and whiny children, a powerful message indeed. We read it year round and enjoy it, it is frequently requested by my children, and it's one of the books I never get sick of reading.
