Cute holiday book, not religious. Geared toward an older child than the original Otis, what with it's talk of a horse in labor possibly not making it.

So fun! Otis is just a really lovable character, and this book isn’t the same as every other Christmas book. It’s a fresh, lovely story. ❤️

I love the Otis books so much and this is one of my fave Xmas books to read with my son. Otis has such a kind heart and the illustrations are lovely. These books just make you feel good.

My students LOVED this book. They enjoyed how a tracker saved the day and they could relate to the farm life and tons of snow.

The illustrations were great, my kids loved every detailed page. The story was ok. A nice Christmas story where Otis tries to save the horse and her foal. Nothing we would be eager to pick up again but for looking at the beautiful illustrations.

This was a gift for Forrest from his preschool teacher. It is such a sweet book--he loves it.

I love the Otis books and this one is no exception! Such a sweet story of a helpful tractor, a blizzard, and a new baby horse!

I love Otis and Loren Long, but sadly, this book was a little to saccharine for my tastes.
