Little Robin's Christmas

(4) K-3 On the frigid days leading up to Christmas, Robin gives away every one of his cozy vests.

Rosy-cheeked watercolors uphold the shirt-off-your-back morality of the tale, which overwhelms the underplayed yet more enticing explanation of "how Robin got his red breast."
