This new addition to the series for beginning readers was adapted from THE LITTLES AND THE TRASH TINIES (Scholastic 1977).
It's almost Christmas, and all the Littles are full of good cheer...all except Uncle Nick. Uncle Nick just moved in. It was time for him to rest after thirty years of fighting mice in Trash City. Uncle Nick likes his new home, but he misses all his friends in Trash City.
So the Littles decide to get Uncle Nick a very special Christmas present. Tom and Lucy travel all the way to Trash City, where they meet many strange and wonderful tiny people. They bring some of Uncle Nick's friends back to visit him -- now all the Littles can have a Merry Christmas!
These books are the perfect reading level for my little one right now. They hold his interest well and always have some sort of problem to solve. Thankfully, the children trust and rely on their parents to help them with their problems.
A story of the Little family, a group of tiny humans. It is Christmas, and their Uncle Tom was missing his friends from Trash City, and so the children and their father take a trip to bring his friends for a visit for Christmas.
