- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The alien Thing from outer space, which first appeared in Space Case, arriving on Earth at Halloween and blending in with the trick-or-treaters, returns in this second picture-book adventure. Buddy McGee, the Thing's human friend, eagerly awaits its promised return, supposed to occur at Christmas. After some delays, and a few threats from some unpleasant neighbors who don't believe his story, Buddy's alien friend does appear...Somehow, although it boasts the same droll artwork and offbeat sense of humor as its predecessor, I didn't quite enjoy Merry Christmas, Space Case as much as I expected to. It was funny, but not chuckling aloud funny, like the first book. I did like the fact that Grannie and the Thing got along so well, and enjoyed talking about science with one another, and I did enjoy the artwork. Maybe I just expected more, given that this was a Christmas tale? Anyhow, despite being rather lukewarm myself, I think young children who enjoyed the first book about this little alien might also enjoy this holiday sequel, and it is to them that I would recommend it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5One of my favorite read alouds for Christmas and the Scholastic video is pretty good too.
