Summary: We knew Chip could write like this...
Review: Chip Emmons is a wonderful storyteller. He knows each word by heart and loves to tell this tale, which is truly touching. I recommend this book highly, it's a wonderful story and gives me a cozy warm feeling when I read it to my son. I gave this book four stars because I'm not crazy about the illustrations, but the author's words more than make up for that. Congratulations, Chip!
