'Twas the Night Before Christmas 21st Century Edition ReviewI think serendipity is that thing where you're looking for one thing and you stumble on another. I was looking for a gag gift/stocking stuffer for a friend for the holidays, and I came across this gem. If only the truth is funny and laughter is the best medicine, "Twas the Night Before Christmas, 21st Century Edition" is a whoop-ass dose of truth serum. Being a huge devotee of that near-extinct form of comedy that is satire, I wasn't prepared to find something that not only made me laugh out loud, but I could tell is going to spawn laughs after numerous readings. The text of this send-up is layered with references that actually do more than just play on the surface of the joke they're making--in other words, it's got dimension. It braids images that traffic in homespun holiday cheer while cracking your funny bone with captions written to inflict whiplash they are so sharply drawn. It swings effortlessly between lofty high-brow references (William Safire) that get their requisite share of chuckles, to low-brow humor so pungent you'll remember why you don't like your frat-boy cousin Dirk, and everything in-between. And there is a faux Maxim magazine cover that elevates the form to dizzying heights of comedic lunacy, something this book does effortlessly. And if that isn't enough, it actually has an ending that buttons the proceedings perfectly. So, I'll buy two copies. One for my friend. And the other for me.'Twas the Night Before Christmas 21st Century Edition OverviewIn Kluger and Slavin's rendition, Christmas is no longer a time of sparkling snow globes and neighborly good will, but rather a celebration of profits, bonuses, and cutthroat competition--complete with disgruntled elves, outsourced Santas, union conflicts, Twittered conspiracies, randy reindeer, media hysteria, factory relocations, toxic merchandise, and a giant leveraged buyout that rocks the world from pole to pole.Packing their verse with hilariously spun rhymes ("The workers grew grim, as they churlishly chored / while Santa grew haplessly, craplessly bored") and even funnier illustrations (picture Santa jumping on Oprah's couch and Mrs. Claus in a racy Maxim cover photo), Kluger and Slavin spike the holiday eggnog with smart and saucy sass--not to mention loads of laughs. 'Twas the Night Before Christmas 21st Century Edition, makes the perfect stocking stuffer or lighthearted gift.

Christine Kringle ReviewChristine Kringle is a funny, warm, quirky look at the whole business of Christmas. The main premise is that there is not just one Santa Claus but that every country has their own (of course! That's why they all have different names!) but that they are all part of a giant corporation called The Yule Dynasty. Each year, the Dynasty meets in conference to decide on the pressing matters of the day (what the next big toy will be, which countries are applying to join the Dynasty and so on.) The job of Gift Bringer usually passes from father to son but the Kringle family of the USA only have a daughter and this forms the basis of the hilarious plot to change the Constitution of the Yule Dynasty. Then, in the middle of the debate about whether women should inherit the Gift Bringer job, there is a global catastrophe. A town in England bans Christmas and the implications for the Yule Dynasty are tremendous. It's up to the Yule teenagers to save the day and save it they do (with the help of Babbo Nataleof Italy's flying Ferrari and the supervision of a couple of tall elves - if you want to know more about that you'll have to read the book.) It is a book that, so far, has had adults chuckling their way into Christmas all over the world. Don't miss out!Christine Kringle OverviewA fun Christmas fantasy book about the lives and working practices of the World's Christmas Gift Bringers and how the daughter of Kriss Kringle of the USA and her friends save Christmas from extinction in England.

When Santa Lost His Ho Ho Ho ReviewI purchased this book for my 2 year old son in advance of Christmas, and thought it would be a cute book by the premise. I was disappointed in both the illustrations and the writing. There was nothing clever or amusing about this book at all, which is too bad since the premise should have led to a good childrens' story. It seems like something a teenager would write for a younger sibling.When Santa Lost His Ho Ho Ho Overview
It's almost Christmas, and everyone—from Mrs. Claus right down to the littlest elf—is getting ready for the big day. But there's something wrong at the North Pole. It's just a bit too . . . quiet. Oh no! Santa has lost his laugh! Where could it be? And how can there be Christmas without Santa's Ho! Ho! Ho!

From the author of Santa's New Suit and Who'll Pull Santa's Sleigh Tonight? comes a holiday romp that's sure to make readers giggle with glee.

Trip To The North Pole (The Polar Express: The Movie) ReviewSaid a kindly newspaper writer to a little girl who wasn't sure if Santa Claus was real. "The Polar Express" recalls the sentiment of this letter and in fine style, "Trip to the North Pole" takes readers on a memorable ride.
You know, one thing about trains --- It doesn't matter where they're going, what matters is deciding to get on. So says The Conductor, and in this case, readers will enjoy the chance to get back on board for another story based on "The Polar Express." This novelization takes what you like about the film and combines it with additional material from the original script. It even integrates a portion of the song "When Christmas Comes to Town" directly into the story.
Fans of the film who are old enough to read chapter novels will appreciate the extra attention to detail given in this story. Much of the dialogue is extended and there are also nice bonsues, such as the Hero Boy (who is referred to simply as "The Boy" in the text) shaking his head at a display he finds fake and extended ramblings from the Know-it-All Boy. If your kids enjoyed the film, but aren't yet old enough to read chapter boosk, you might consider reading this story aloud to them.
Normally, I find books based on movies that were based on books in the first place to often be so-so at best. But this is a Christmas treat for all fans of the film who truly believe.This book includes fifteen still photos from the film, all in color.Trip To The North Pole (The Polar Express: The Movie) OverviewStraight from the silver screen comes the story of the Polar Express, with an eight-page color insert of movie scenes.
