Publisher Description
While kids scrawl notes to Santa Claus, hatchlings write to Santa Claws. They ask for treats to fuel their romping. Santa better get to stomping!
With bouncy, delightful rhymes, Santa Claws celebrates Christmas in the Cretaceous world. Every year, Santa Claws delivers presents, spreading cheer wherever he goes. Every dino in the land gets into the Christmas spirit: Boneheads make toys, Gallimimus trims the Christmas tree, and Tiny T-Rex makes sure Santa doesn't go hungry.
Get ready for a ride on Santa's sled (pulled, of course, by pterosaurs) in this joyful holiday tale!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Reptiles from the Cretaceous Period, they're just like us—at least when it comes to Christmas traditions, according to Heos and Bernstein's lighthearted snapshot of a T. rex known as Santa Claws. Images in a range of greens and browns, often accented with lush ferns or other flora, feature friendly-faced creatures. Young dinos sit on the lap of the red-hatted terrible lizard, ask for chiseled toys, and leave out scavenged meat for the figure. Though some rhymes are uneven, scenes depicting families making holiday preparations or receiving gifts sustain a joyful energy, and youngest dino fans will clamber to see smiling "Tricera-moms and 'cera-pops/ Hang stockings for tricera-tots" in this punny offering: "Merry Christmas to all—/ I shall try not to bite." Features fact-filled closing pages. Ages 4–8.
