ISBN 0140563741 - Before you read this review, I suggest you figure out what it is you're interested in - the video or the book - and if it's the video, skip this review. I get the feeling that the quality of the two are not comparable. I only recently discovered that Spot was a character in a series of books and finding a Christmas book in that series is a bit like finding a Christmas album by almost any artist - it's just something everyone's got to do and most aren't spectacular. This one was a little disappointing to me.

Spot meets two reindeer who have managed to lose Santa's sleigh, putting Christmas in jeopardy for everyone. The sleigh must be found in time, so he decides to help, enlisting friends along the way. When the sleigh is located, Spot is given a very special ride as a reward.

The book reads a little as if Spot suffers from ADD - he's into decorating, then getting wood for the fire, then looking for the sleigh, followed by sledding... it's actually somewhat difficult to follow and just doesn't flow. Spot fans will enjoy Eric Hill's Christmas story and the illustrations are typical Spot (while the video seems to be more Disney-esque). There are plenty of better Christmas books out there, so unless you're shopping specifically for a fan of Spot, keep looking.
