4-09 I really didn't care for this book, and it was quite an effort to get through it. It was for book club. We all read the blurb and decided that it sounded great, but I think we've been let down. I had a lot of trouble with her writing style. It jumped erratically from one thought to another when characters were talking and thinking. That drove me nuts. Also hated that there were no quotation marks. Just those dash things, which made it confusing figuring out what was spoken, and what was thought. Couldn't find a single character to like or identify with. I just wanted to give Ruben a kick in the butt for being so gloomy and self centered. Are we supposed to like the character of Berry? She was just awful. Hated what she did at the end of the book. I had to force myself to get through it.
Very cute story about Santa and his red suit. Christmas wouldn't be the same if Santa changed his suit! Great Holiday book for children. Would be great right before Christmas break. This book could even be used for a math game on how many times "red" was used.
