The Magical Christmas Horse

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Wendell Minor. Arizona native Johnny, eight, and his family spend Christmas at his grandparents' house in Connecticut. Johnny remembers riding an antique wooden rocking horse during his last visit and excitedly promises the toy to his little brother. But when they arrive the horse is nowhere to be found. Minor's paintings add a distinctive sense of place to the wordy and sentimental story.
