Poppa's Itchy Christmas

32 pp. | Holiday | September, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1298-9 $$15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by John Ward. George and Poppa, from Poppa's New Pants, reappear in a warm but preachy holiday story illustrated with somewhat stiff artwork. The ice skates Poppa gives George for Christmas make up for the disappointment he feels over his other gifts--an extra-long muffler and a pair of scratchy long underwear. But when George falls through pond ice as he's skating, it's his under-appreciated presents that help save him.
