Santa Paws is at it Again!

It was almost Christmas, and with Santa Paws safe at home it was going to be the first relaxing holiday the Callahans had had in years. Who could have known they were going to have much more than just a white Christmas? When a huge ice storm takes the little town of Oceanport by surprise, countless accidents occur. Too many for even Santa Paws? But the hero dog escapes into the storm with his new sidekick, Abigail the cat, to face his biggest disaster ever. With a number of amazing (and a couple funny) rescues, Santa Paws is saving Christmas again!Abigail is great, and Santa Paws is as good as ever! But why aren't Gregory and Patricia involved in any of these books anymore? It's really cool to read about Santa Paws and his rescues--especially about Abigail tagging along behind him. But if sometime there could be a book that was a little more like "The Return of Santa Paws" again... Still--a really great book!

Storm of the Century!

It was close to Christmas and with Santa Paws at home it was going to be the first relaxing holiday the Callahans had had in years. Nobody could have known that they were going to have much more than just a white Christmas. When a huge ice storm takes Oceanport by surprise, an amazing number of accidents happen. Is this storm a disaster not even Santa Paws can face? But Santa Paws sets out with his new sidekick, mischievous Abigail the cat, to save Christmas once again. He braves everything from falling trees and car crashes to loose cows and a cat stuck in a slippery tree, to make sure everybody has a happy holiday.

This book is a delight!

Dear, sweet Santa Paws is back - and braver than ever! A serious ice storm hits town, putting many people in danger, and he gallantly travels around town to save them all. His sidekick, Abigail the cat, is a riot. I've always been particularly fond of Mr. Callahan's interaction with the animals at home, too. Several characters from previous Santa Paws books show up again this time around. The whole town knows him by now and people do whatever they can to help out - but everyone knows that Santa Paws is the boss when it comes to making the world safe for nice people and they do what he tells them to do. (And by the way, lots of good lessons about safety are sneaked into this book as well.)
