Summary: My kids are nuts about this book
Comment: The recommended age may be 5-10, but I have two and three year old boys that are crazy about this book. They love looking at the paintings and finding things in them (they are full of detail), they love asking about the story. Hardly a night goes by that they don't ask to read this book, in spite of having plenty of others to choose from.
As Christmas stories go, yes, it is predictable. However, I think 'How the Grinch...' and 'Frosty the Snowman' are pretty predictable, too, but that does not lessen the enjoyment kids will find in reading and re-reading them with their parents. Share this book with your little ones, and enjoy the intricate paintings along the way.

Summary: Enjoyable Christmas story
Comment: This story is easily understandable and of a length that keeps children interested. Adults will also enjoy this book while reading it to "that special child." The lesson set forth in this story is an important one for the Christmas season. Mr. Morrissey's paintings are wonderful!! His attention to detail is incredible, done with care and perfection. The character of Sam Thatcher is especially authentic and recognizable. I am looking forward to the next Morrissey publication.

Summary: A wonderful Christmas story
Comment: The Christmas Ship is not your typical children's Christmas story. Mr. Morrissey has gently pointed out that "stuff" isn't what is important in life. It is very easy for us to see the good in Sam and the children, but we are also shown the kind side of the mayor! Children will learn quite a bit from Mr. Morrissey. When they realize what it is that Sam leaves the Mayor for Christmas....well that's what Christmas is all about! I sure wish Sam lived in my neighborhood! And the paintings in this book are spectacular! Each page deserves to be framed and hung for display!
