This is a book written for a very special little girl named Zoe who has a very interesting perspective on life. And what is that perspective? It is to have a much fun as you possibly can in life and to enjoy every minute of it And in Zoe's case it shows, and this is why Penelope Dyan wrote this book just for her This is an age old story of kids and Christmas, and addresses some very serious issues like making sure Santa has his chocolate chip cookies before he goes back up the chimney on Christmas night Penelope Dyan also makes sure this time that the clothes on her characters really match. Red and white matching red and white is not a good enough match for our little Zoe, because stripes must match stripes, after all. Meet Zoe's house mouse and a cat that looks like a cow. Do you know why the cat looks like a cow? Perhaps you can guess why. Penelope Dyan is a former teacher who is an attorney, and has been widely published in both fields. Her kid friendly drawings are meant to make kids laugh in delight, and they do They are also intended to show kids drawings do not have to be complex or serious, all they have to do is come straight from the heart. Do not be surprised if your child copies some of the drawings to make his or her own books, because this is exactly what Dyan hopes will happen. If you are a Penelope Dyan fan you know all her books are about being creative and about taking a kids' eye view of the world, and this book is no different
