Eva is super excited for the winter holiday Warm Hearts Day, which she will share with friends and family. In the week leading up to the holiday, they bake cookies, make crafts, write cards, purchase presents, and more. Along the way, Eva is reminded that the holiday is ultimately about kindness.

This was a nice way to talk about holidays -- and what makes them both fun and meaningful -- while remaining secular. It's fairly obvious that the holiday being mimicked is Christmas, but since it is not named as such, this book could work for readers of any religious (or non-religious) background.

This title is part of the wildly popular Owl Diaries series, although it didn't seem to matter much that I hadn't read any of the previous titles. The short chapters with only a handful of paragraphs per page and lots of illustrations make this the perfect book for those kids who are reading on their own but aren't quite ready to tackle the much weightier chapter books.

Cute for what it is, but don't expect anything too mind-blowing here. I'm sure the target audience will enjoy. ( )

All the owls are being busy bees its almost warm hearts day and they need presents for their family and friends. Eva is struck with a problem once she is reminded her family will not receive gifts can she make them in time before warm hearts day.
