PreS-Gr 2–It’s Christmas in Fairyland and the three little superpigs are showing off their super talents in their favorite winter activities. Little Red Riding Hood outshines them all with a fantastic ice sculpture and wins a special visit with the big man himself, but Santa is missing! The superpigs search for Santa, but instead find the Big Bad Wolf. Narrowly avoiding a Christmas disaster, the superpigs reflect on Christmas as a time for giving, not just receiving. They decide that everyone deserves a little Christmas cheer, even those on the naughty list. Jolly holiday scenes, with bright and fun animation-like illustrations, jump right off the page with embellished details and fairy-tale references. Families and children familiar with the series will enjoy the continuation, while new readers can easily jump into the festive and secular fun.
VERDICT A secondary purchase for holiday collections.
