Minerva Louise on Christmas Eve (Janet Morgan Stoeke, 2007)



Logline:

Minerva Louise encounters Santa Claus and is brandishing her typically naive observations.

London:

She doesn't know anything.

Ben:

I love her dry wit. It's so conceptually funny that a hen is off put by every single thing that happens despite not knowing much about anything.

What it would be like to be in this book:

If I were Minerva Louise, London posits, "I would at least know one thing!" Ben is still wondering why she thinks a chimney is a well. It seems like that one - to a farm girl - should be obvious.

  1. Oh, my I love Minerva Louise!! She really never seems to get it, but that's what I love about her. She makes me giggle!
