Dear Santasaurus

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jef Kaminsky. On January 1st, young dinosaur Ernest B. Spinosaurus begins writing letters to Santasaurus thanking him for his presents and vowing to stay on the "nice list" all year. Subsequent letters are filled with wish lists and confessions of progressively outrageous mischief. Visual irony augments the comedy: vibrant, black-outlined illustrations clearly show that Ernest doesn't always tell Santasaurus the whole truth.
