What a delightful story first time author Terance Shipman has written. Children will delight in hearing the joys of what happened during the December holidays. I imagined myself in each scene. It was exciting to read what fun Team Shipman had during the month of December. A great read anytime, but especially for the holidays in Mr. Shipman's class. Readers will certainly be anxious to find out what happens next as they read each page. The story was well written!

Dr. Shipman restores the magic, beauty, and innocence of Christmas in the eyes of a child from beginning to end. It is sheer delight to feel the anticipation of Dr. Shipman's classroom celebration. A must read for children and adults of any age. I'm already in the Christmas spirit and it's only October!
