About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their imaginative child has a big, slightly illogical idea and wants to save the day. This story is about Jenny, a determined girl who misinterprets climate change to mean that Santa Claus will be arriving three weeks early. Her solution: build a new ice-cap in the school library to get Christmas back on schedule. The book celebrates creative (if flawed) problem-solving and resilience when things go spectacularly wrong. It's a fast-paced, hilarious read for early chapter book readers that introduces a big topic in a silly, accessible way, perfect for a child who loves zany adventures and a good laugh.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book uses the concept of climate change (melting ice-caps) as its central premise. However, it is handled in a completely lighthearted, metaphorical, and non-frightening way. It's a plot device for a funny story, not a serious environmental lesson. The mention of Christmas and a "guiding angel" is purely cultural and secular, not religious.
