A First Christmas; Friends and Festivity by Sean Noonan is a lighthearted tale about Sam and Elannah who travel to a dreamland tree-house in the jungle. From there they begin their adventure to find a Christmas tree, the best Christmas tree, in order to throw a party for their magical friend, the Bridge Troll, who had never before celebrated Christmas. Along the way to securing everything "perfect" for their party, the children meet several of their magical friends who lead them to many discoveries.
What I like most about the book, besides the uplifting voice in which the story is told, is the fact that the author had his children do the illustrating. It is a good read for bedtime, or by an independent reader, anytime of year.
On a scale of 1-4, I give this book a 4.
This book was published by Outskirts Press.
