Judy Moody & Stink: The Holly Joliday - Megan McDonald and Peter H Reynolds

Judy Moody & Stink: The Holly Joliday

eISBN 9780763658601

There are two cross-over books that are both Stink & Judy Moody books, this one and Judy Moody and Stink: The Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Treasure Hunt. Both are great reads as are the 20 odd other books between the two series. But what I like most about the cross-over books and especially this one, is that we see a very different side of Judy. Yes, she is an older sister and likes to antagonize her younger brother, but she is also an older sister who deeply cares for her brother and in the end does not want to see him disappointed.

The Chapters are:
Frosty the Mailman
Making a List, Checking It twice
Mele Kalikimaka
A Parrot in a Palm Tree
Jingle All The Way
Not-So-Silent Night
Let it Snow

All Stink wants for Christmas is SNOW! But in the book it has only snowed in Virginia once in a long time. But the new mailman's name is Jack Frost and he tells Stink that he can smell snow on the air. Will Stink get his Christmas wish, his Christmas miracle? Read and find out. Megan and Peter have become some of my top children's authors of all time. In the last 2 months I have read 10 books in these series and almost 20 books across McDonald and Reynolds. Not one has disappointed - all have been excellent reads! Give their books a try. You will find magic in their writing and illustrations!
