review 1: Another fabulous Otis book, I just can't get enough of them. I adore the sweet and courageous tractor who is willing to do anything for his friends. When Otis's friend, the mare struggles to give birth, he sets out for the doctor despite a furious snowstorm. With the help of his shiny new horn, Otis once again manages to save the day in a satisfying way. I have to say though that while I love the story, it's the illustrations that win the day. They are so rich in feeling and color and detail. A wonderful story about friendship and sacrifice great for sharing!
review 2: “An Otis Christmas” written and beautifully illustrated by Loren Long is a new adventure of the popular tractor Otis, story that is conveniently dedicated to warm Christmas atmosphere.The s... moretory begins on Christmas Eve when Otis will receive beautiful new horn from the farmer, his first Christmas gift.And while evening is passing in warm pre-Christmas atmosphere suddenly a problem will arise when one of horses should give birth, and because the roads are clogged with snow is not possible for doctor to come.The only one who can help is Otis and our brave hero, despite the cold and the snow instead staying in warm house will go for help. Also his Christmas present will be proved more than useful a lot earlier than Otis thought…“An Otis Christmas” is nicely written and beautifully illustrated book whose story is interesting and exciting allowing children multiple and enjoyable readings.Otis is a great hero full of virtues from which children can learn a lot, and because this book’s theme is suitable for this Christmas season I can fully recommend its reading together with your preschool children on Christmas Eve. less
