Desert-dwelling meerkat Sunny (
Meerkat Mail, rev. 1/08) wants Christmas to be perfect "just like in his magazine"--but with no snow in the Kalahari, he seeks chillier climes. Sunny's voyages take him around the globe, landing in his dream spot "with all the trimmings." But something is missing--or rather a dozen or so some
ones. An assist from Santa brings Sunny back home just in time for presents. The funny juxtapositions--meerkats wearing scarves, for example, and a penguin in the desert--in the watercolor paint and pencil illustrations enhance this zippy, warmhearted tale. Cards (unseen) written by Sunny appear beneath liftable flaps throughout, and endpapers include craft activities with details about desert creatures.
