About this item
Fabulously illustrated by H. B. Lewis, Elizabeth Cody Kimmels hilarious romp through the land of be-careful-what-you-wish-for offers a whole years worth of holiday fun magic.This year, I was very specific in my letter to Santa Claus.Each year at Christmas, Joe writes a letter to Santa. But theyve had a few misunderstandings in the past. Last year, for example, Joe wanted a fire-engine-red racecar with retracting headlights, and he did get one - but it was only three inches long. So this year Joe is really, really careful. He describes exactly what he wants - and on Christmas morning, guess whats waiting for him under the tree! Santa has brought him a living, breathing, black-and-white penguin named Osbert. Will anything in Joes life ever be the same?
