Short
Summary of the book:
This is a nice children’s book centred around
a young reindeer and her friends. She is now a little older than in the first
book and has had some adventures in the second and third book too, giving her
even more friends. This time, she sees off her parents when they lead Santa’s
sleigh on Christmas Eve. There are people out to destroy Christmas though, and
Fawn is tasked with saving Christmas. Will she succeed?
What
I liked about the book:
The book is action-packed, and full of twists
and turns.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
I enjoyed the entire book.
My
favourite bits in the book:
How Fawn has grown and become more
responsible.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
The book was enjoyable in its entirety.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
This is the second book I’ve read by this
author. I understand this is the fourth in a series of 4.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
This is a lovely children’s book. However,
the language and writing style would perhaps fit best for older children (10-12
y.o.) and the subject may not entertain the older group as much as the younger
children (5-8 y.o.).
Recommendation:
In
summary, I would recommend this book for the following readers:
|
Children |
Yes |
|
Young
Adult |
Probably
not |
|
Adult |
If
young at heart, yes |
If
you children stories with a Christmassy feel,
this book may be the book for you.
I’m
certainly looking forward to reading more by this author.

Description by Author:
Fantastic!
Fun-tastic! Fawn-tastic!
Fawn
is back home at the North Pole, and Christmas Eve 1849 has finally arrived. As
Santa, Mary, Wajic and the legendary team of reindeer leave to begin the
monumental task of delivering gifts to children around the world, a sun pillar
appears not far away. But the true purpose of the bright and beautiful column
of light is dark and dangerous. Upon Santa’s return, the moment his sleigh
touches down, its occupants and the faithful team of reindeer will all
disappear forever. Only someone pure of heart and possessing an unblemished
soul can extinguish the pillar safely. That someone is--Fawn. But many perils
and surprises mark the way to the pillar. Fawn’s very first Christmas may turn
out to be her last.!
About
the Author:
Through
almost 40 years as a Santa Claus, Al E. Boy developed quite a repertoire of
tales to explain and answer the many questions children ask about Santa, the
North Pole, his reindeer, and his friends, the elves.
It was this
collection of tales which prompted him to begin writing The Adventures of Fawn.
Through the young daughter of legendary reindeer Comet and Vixen, he's been
able to weave an exciting, colorful, imaginative world which will delight
readers of all ages!
Mr. Boy not
only hopes you enjoy these tales, but make reading them part of your Christmas
traditions, as well.
