A New York Times bestseller! From the celebrated creator of Red and Lulu comes the story of a brave little doe who meets Santa and changes Christmas forever. Dasher is an adventurous young reindeer with a wish in her heart. She spends her days with her family under the hot sun in a traveling circus, but she longs for a different life — one where there is snow beneath her hooves and the North Star above her head. One day, when the opportunity arises, Dasher seizes her destiny and takes off in pursuit of the life she wants to live. It’s not long before she meets a nice man in a red suit with a horse-drawn sleigh — a man named Santa. And soon, with the help of a powerful Christmas wish, nothing will be the same. Review: Cute book - We have a few in this series. Beautiful illustrations and wonderful holiday stories. The kids really enjoy these books Review: Our very favorite Christmas book - Absolutely beautiful illustrations. A lovely, sweet, well written story that we literally never tire of. I bought this book for my daughter when she was 5 & she is 7 now. We read this book year round - it is so feel good. Edited 1.5 years later - We still love this book. Never a month passes without reading Dasher, rarely a week. My daughter owns nearly 600 books. She read 40 *new* books in August alone, so we do a whole lot of reading in this house. And we still, time and again, come back to Dasher. We love this book so much that I'm back today to order a copy for a friend's granddaughter. While here to place that order I noticed all the negative reviews and felt the need to address them. I am absolutely astonished at how many people can create something to be offended about where there is nothing. Yes, Dasher & her family start the story in a travelling circus. There are zero descriptions of animal cruelty. There is absolutely nothing dark or scary. My daughter has been homeschooled her entire life & is beyond sheltered. She is gifted-intense, which comes with super emotional sensitivity & big, big feelings. Not only does Dasher not frighten or upset her, it is one of my top go-to books to help soothe her when she is upset about something. As for the ending being confusing, that is hog wash. There is nothing choppy or unclear or confusing in the story. Apparently there are more Grinches running amok in the world than I realized!

The artwork is beautiful
Such a sweet story with beautiful artwork! It is a little on the longer side so may not be good for younger kids with short attention spans

Super cute!
The story is very cute plus I didn't realize that female reindeer are the ones that have antlers during the winter so I learned something new! The illustrations are beautiful as well. the only reason I went with 4 stars instead of 5 was because the story had a really great start but then at the end fell a little flat.

中古じゃないのに
カバーが破れていて、右上角は折れていました。今まで本をたくさん頼んできましたが、初めてでした。 中古だったら仕方ないと思いますが、新品のはずなのに…とても残念でした。

Beautiful Christmas gift
I recently had this delivered to my 19 month old grandson and he loves it. His parents have read it to him repeatedly and he enjoys it each time. He's been to see Santa and to various pre-Christmas events so he was very interested in this story. I am very particular about the books I send him. They have to be beautifully illustrated but just as important the story has to be well-written and meaningful. This book ticks all the boxes. It's a wonderful gift for a child and it's enjoyable for the parents to read.
