Overview / 简介: |
Peanut is going over the river and through the woods to his grandmother's house for Christmas, but getting there is a food-filled adventure for this little nut! First he gets stuck in a traffic jam (make that a traffic jelly), then the bridge is closed so he has to take a (gravy) boat across the river, where he gets lost in a forest of (cookies shaped like) Christmas trees! But while the delays dismay his friends and family, Peanut embraces his role as the Merry Christmas Nut to cheer them up.
In this heart-warming and humorous Christmas tale based on the real-life adventures of one peanut -- including ice-skating on popsicles and making snow angels in powdered-sugar snow -- our food friends know that the true meaning of Christmas is joining with our loved ones to celebrate the joy of being together. |

| PreS-Gr 2—In this spirited tale from the creator of Peanut Butter and Cupcake and other photo-illustrated stories featuring tasty food items as characters, young Peanut is traveling to his grandmother's house for Christmas dinner. He and his parents set off in the family car but soon encounter an obstacle—an accident involving a peanut baker whose giant jar of jelly has spilled all over the road. The baker is sad because now he cannot make his famous jelly donuts, so Peanut invites him to come along to Grandma's house. Additional delays introduce more peanuts in distress. Peanut invites them, too, enthusiastically proclaiming, "Don't be sad! I'll cheer you up! I'm the Merry Christmas nut!" Grandmother is unfazed by the extra guests. There's plenty of food, including a wagon full of mashed potatoes and gravy. Everyone stays the night, and the fun continues the next day with a rousing game of hockey atop an orange popsicle. VERDICT Kids will be mesmerized by Border's clever photos, which imbue the peanuts with personality and a true sense of action. The message of kindness comes across with no overt religious references. Good nutty fun! |
