Kindergarten-Grade 3-Four complete books by Syd Hoff from HarperCollins' I Can Read series are included here. One of the dinosaurs in the museum comes to life and spends the day with a young boy and his friends in Danny and the Dinosaur (HarperCollins, 1986). In Happy Birthday, Danny and the Dinosaur! (HarperCollins, 1995), the dinosaur is back to celebrate Danny's sixth birthday. The dinosaur welcomes a vacation when Danny and the Dinosaur Go to Camp (HarperCollins, 1996), and he doesn't seem to mind when all the kids and the camp counselor ride on his back after a tiring hike. Sammy and the Seal (HarperCollins, 2000) tells the story of a seal on an adventure out of the zoo and into the town, including learning to read and write at school. Peter Lorangis and Charles Mintz alternate telling the stories using delightful voices and clear narration, perfect for young listeners. There are no page turn signals or sound effects, but whimsical musical accompaniment adds to the playfulness of the stories. The only thing missing is the charming and comical illustrations that make the stories so much fun to read. The wonderful narration and music make the audiocassette a joy to listen to, but if you don't want to miss out on the visual humor have the books handy for read-alongs.
心理学家认为：孩子们心中存在着一种相信的快乐。儿童的心理世界比现实更强大。孩子们在美丽的童话中找到了幸福。
电影《极地特快》的主演汤姆·汉克斯说：如果没有圣诞老人的话，那么围绕这一点的所有东西都成假的了，如果真的有的话，那么这个世界就变得充满神奇。我愿意为孩子们拍一部真正属于他们的电影，告诉他们相信奇迹，也等于告诉我们要保留纯真。
本书图像精美，文字简练，并配有相应的拼音，使得孩子在欣赏漂亮图画的同时，又学习了知识，可谓一举双得。
好多年以前，我一动不动地躺在床上，不出声地呼吸着，我在等着听一个声音——圣诞老人的雪橇的铃声。那天晚上，我真地听到了。不过，那不是铃声，而是从外面传来的蒸气的嘶嘶声和金属的嘎嘎声。我朝窗口望去，看到一列火车正停在我家门口。
列车长站在车厢门口，抬头望着我的窗户。我朝他跑去。他问我：“你也要去吗？”“去哪儿？”我问。“当然是去北极了。”他回答，“这是北极特快列车。”他把我拉到了车上，车上全是穿着睡衣的孩子。
我们的火车穿过又黑又冷的森林，穿过有狼徘徊的荒野，又翻过许多高山……远远的地方现出了亮光。列车长说：“那儿，就是北极了。”
