Kosmo, the king of troublesome terriers, takes trouble to a whole new level! He's a one-of-a-kind, corn-on-the-cob nibbling, ice cream licking, always-into-mischief dog. Kosmo's Christmas Delivery is told from the point-of-view of an older, but not necessarily wiser dog, Kramer, who laments the acquisition of Kosmo by his family, especially his girl, Emily Jean. When the inquisitive Kosmo jumps on board the Yellow Package delivery truck a few days before Christmas, Kramer, secretly wishes the pup will be lost forever. He reluctantly agrees to help Emily Jean search the snowy streets of their small town for Kosmo. Through a series of unusual events, the missing terrier finally comes home, but not a moment before his older sibling realizes how much he cares about his young friend.
Christmas is just around the corner! What better way to get ready than a cute Christmas story? Kosmos's Christmas Delivery is about a dog who has to learn how to get along with a new member of the family. Kramer is not too happy when the family gets a new puppy that they name Kosmos. He is all too happy when Kosmos disappears, but once the reality settles in, he finds himself missing his new friend.
I don't have small kids anymore, but I know that this would be just the type of story that would have appealed to them when they were little. The story is adventurous and amusing. It also has a great message. The illustrations really bring the story to life and fit the scenes perfectly. I would definitely recommend this one to parents and grandparents of young children. It would make a great Christmas gift!
