《儿童读物杂志》(Horn Book)书评
After Christmas, Samantha writes a letter to Santa, thanking him for her gifts and beginning a year-long correspondence. Unfortunately, a discrepancy exists between Samantha's age and her unquestioning belief in Santa Claus. The illustrations are pleasant though undistinguished. From HORN BOOK 1992, (c) Copyright 2010.

Kirkus评论
In January, Samantha writes Santa a friendly thank-you note, confiding her pleasure in the knitting needles and yarn he brought and asking after his reindeer. In February, he replies: no, he and Mrs. Claus don't know how to knit, and the littlest reindeer is poorly. So it goes, month by month, as the two exchange notes on polar animals, including a bear Samantha knows about in a nearby zoo (``Perhaps he was dreaming of snow''). Santa decides the reindeer will have to stay home this year; Samantha intervenes on his behalf (``All I want for Christmas is for the littlest reindeer to be happy...''); and in December, Santa thanks the Australian child for her knitted gifts and promises an unseasonable surprise for her polar bear friend. Wild brings a deal of thought to her carefully crafted, simple seeming story; Argent's appealing realistic illustrations glow with life and color. An unusually amiable Christmas offering. (Picture book. 4-8)
《书目》(Booklist)书评
Ages 4-8. In this Australian picture book, Samantha writes to Santa in January, thanking him for her presents and adding "P.S. I hope you had a good Christmas, too! P.P.S. Can you knit? P.P.P.S. How are the reindeer?" The ensuing correspondence between Santa and Samantha forms the text of this charming book. Each month brings a new letter and a new double-page spread illustrating the missive with a scene of life at the North Pole or in Australia, where Samantha watches the polar bear in the zoo and wishes that his dream of a summer snowstorm could come true. The following Christmas, Santa grants the wish and delights the bear. Argent's softly shaded full-color artwork fills up the pages and will have broad appeal. Teachers may use the book to introduce letter writing or the reversal of seasons in the Southern Hemisphere; children will enjoy its satisfying interplay of story and illustration. ~--Carolyn Phelan
