Book Review: Reindeer Dust - Kate Dwyer and Joanne Lew-Vriethoff
Reindeer Dust is a picture book for children written by Kate Dwyer and illustrated by Joanne Lew-Vriethoff. This Christmas story is about Santa's reindeer, who are tired from work one year. A smart little boy named William comes up with a recipe for reindeer dust to attract and feed the reindeer.
The book includes a poem for children to read on Christmas Eve, and a recipe for reindeer dust. (It contains brown sugar, oats, and bran.)
The story is told in rhyme, and it would make a fun read aloud for preschool age children. The illustrations are charming with a retro inspired flare and an appealing color palette of seafoam green with pastels and red.
I think this book (and the reindeer dust activity!) would make a fun annual tradition.
I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
