Festive Holiday Read!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This was a wonderful Elsie book with many thrills in it. Again, like the last few books, the story centers on Lulu Raymond---Elsie's granddaughter. The holidays have arrived and all of the family has grouped together at Grandma Elsie's house for the fun. There's snowball fights, sleigh rides, charades, stories, and other amusement provided by ventriloquist, Cousin Ronald. There's even quite a bit of suspense! The book closes after some of the most dramatic events draw to an end. But I'm left longing to continue into the next book. I enjoyed each and every chapter, as something new is always happening. This is one of my favorites!
