PreS-Gr 1—In a world awash with silvery foil, a little bunny writes a letter to Santa, wishing for a friend. When she misses the last Red Robin mail pickup, she decides to deliver her letter in person, and in the grandest tradition of folktales everywhere, shares her travel supplies with those in need, who repay her kindness with gifts and (one assumes) friendship. Painterly, preschool-friendly illustrations and a simple story about kindness rewarded-good enough. But oh, the foil on every spread! Sunglasses may be needed when sharing this story during daylight hours. A shiny additional purchase.—Mara Alpert, Los Angeles Public Library
