Summary: This book is not for Children who believe in Santa Claus
Comment: This book was written on a third grade reading level. I am a professional educator from Texas and I read it with my twin 7 year olds two weeks before Christmas(The characters in this book are also 7 year olds). Early in the book a child was being teased about believing in Santa Claus. I was surprised, but felt sure that toward the end of the book Ms. Delton would some how tie in that there really was a Santa Claus, so she wouldn't ruin a timeless tradition of many people. Imagine my surprise when she did the exact opposite! One child tells the other- Santa Claus isn't real he is really your mom and dad and the boy responds by saying, I know, but it is more fun to pretend you beleive. I think it was irresponsible of Ms. Delton to write a Christmas story on a Third grade reading level (this is also the grade that I teach) and to tell millions of children everywhere that Santa Claus isn't real. It is my job as a parent to make the decision as to whether my children participate in the believe of Santa Claus. I expected my chlidren would find out that Santa was not real, but never in my wildest dreams did I think they would find out from a library book!...
The book is a good book, but the content is not apporpiate for the age level in which it is written. This is why I rated it so low!
Rating: 3
Summary: Written very well; some content questionable
Comment: A Pee Wee Christmas by Judy Delton is written very well and is very interesting to children. It comes from a great series of books for children.
This book is not appropriate for children who still believe in Santa Claus. It brings up the question of if there really is a Santa Claus. A boy who still believes gets laughed at.
It is very appropriate for older children.
