Bubble and his little brother, Squeak, are excited to go to Grandma's for Christmas, but Squeak is worried that Santa won't be able to find them. "How will Santa know we're at Grandma's?" Squeak cries. "That's easy!" says Bubble. "We'll tell him!" With Mommy and Daddy's help, they come up with clever ways to let Santa know where they are. But when they finally get to Grandma's house, Bubble sees that there's no chimney. "How will Santa get in?" the brothers wail. It's up to Grandma to save the day-and Christmas!

PreS-Gr 1-Bubble and Squeak (not to be confused with the traditional British dish) are two tiny mice excited for Santa's visit. When they find out that they'll be at Grandma's for Christmas, they frantically write letters and draw maps so that Santa will still be able to find them. Imagine their horror when they arrive at Grandma's and realize that she doesn't have a chimney! Grandma saves the day by building a "Super-Swishy Santa Slide" from the roof to the front door. Bright, colorful watercolor illustrations are pleasing to look at, but the story lacks depth and any real suspense. This is a modestly pleasant but additional purchase.-Madeline J.
