Fletcher, that earnest and somewhat befuddled fox whose story began in Fletcher and the Falling Leaves, and continued in Fletcher and the Springtime Blossoms, returns for his third adventure in this charming holiday tale. Worried that Santa Claus will not be able to find his friends, the rabbits,
Like the previous two installments of this picture-books series, I thought that Fletcher and the Snowflake Christmas (Ferdie's Christmas in the UK) was a sweet tale. Fletcher is an amiable bumbler, always a little confused, inadvertently spreading panic amongst his fellow forest residents, but also lovable and loving. I appreciated the theme, in this one, of concern for others, and hope for their joy at the holidays, as that is in keeping with my own estimation of the true Christmas "spirit." Tiphanie Beeke's illustrations are appealing, and - as always with these Fletcher books - the final spread was particularly magical! Recommended to any young reader who enjoyed the first two Fletcher books, and to children who worry that Santa won't find them.
