Tucker is a little white dog who is anxiously preparing for Christmas picking out the perfect tree, getting lots of kisses under the mistletoe and, singing carols with his own distinctive sound. On Christmas Eve he burns his nose on a pan of cookies and his nose gets very red. That night outside his window he hears Santa calling and he is excited as he moves to the head of the reindeer pack to guide Santa's way. He goes up and down the chimneys all night long helping to deliver presents. By sunrise a tuckered-out Tucker is returns home and given the best gift of all...a set of antlers. Tucker can hardly wait for next Christmas. This cheerful tale will brighten up a little one's anxious days waiting for Christmas. Tucker zips across the pages giving the story energy and verve. Children will be amused by his mischievousness and be envious of his ride with Santa. Bright cartoon illustrations are as lively as the text. The accompanying animated DVD will allow children to read along or pop it in the car's DVD player to help pass the time on the way to Grandma's. A full color poster and assorted holiday stickers complete the package. Reviewer: Beverley Fahey
