Christmas Holiday. Silly Milly (Great Dane) is waiting for her friends Willy & Nilly.Silly Milly looks up at the mistletoe.Silly Milly gets to sample the dinner.What is Silly Milly up to next?I do not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing free books from publishers & authors. Therefore, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.An awesome book cover, great hand-drawn colored pictures, charming illustrations & proper font & writing style. A very professionally written children’s (preschool/elementary age) Great Dane rhyming storybook. It was quite easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters, settings, etc. to keep track of. This could also make another great Great Dane movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini-TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is an extremely easy rating of 5 stars.Thank you for the free author; eBookStage; Amazon Digital Services LLC.; bookTony Parsons MSW (Washburn)

A Rollicking Good Time
Anyone who has ever had a dog will empathize with Silly Milly and her Christmas antics. Milly is a Great Dane. She can be clumsy and awkward, but she more than makes up for that with her love of life and humans.Elementary school age readers will laugh as they follow Milly upsetting presents, sampling holiday goodies, slobbering over visitors, and drinking from the toilet bowl.The illustrations are beautifully done. Rhymes utilize alliteration, repetition and lots of sounds that make this book a joy to read aloud. Children and adults will return to read it over and over.This is a great book to add to your holiday collection.

4.5 Stars
Cute story, nice illustrations. There's 2.5 lines are exactly the same on each page. I know repetition is part of the formula for kids books and helps them learn but these were just a lot and felt unnecessary. Then only 2.5 lines that are actually telling the story. If you don't mind the dog being introduced on each page its a good story.

Milly is silly, and the rhymes are sublime!
I am a teacher with more than 30 years of experience in elementary grades, so I know what kids like. Kids like animals. Kids like humor. Kids like rhymes. Kids like real-life stories. Win-win-win-win, because A Silly Milly Christmas has ALL of those things! And to be serious for a moment...scientists have proven that rhythm, repetition, and rhyme help children build neural networks in their brains that are necessary for reading. Parents, PLEASE read books like A Silly Milly Christmas to your children over and over again. Your children will LOVE Milly while you prepare them for school and life success!

Fabulous illustrations!
As with the other Milly book the illustrations make up for what the story lacks. Rating the story alone it would be less than two stars for me. Again there are some reading rhythm stumbles and this time too many phrases like "small talk" and "heavy mug" (tired head) that won't be understood by the picture book crowd. This is free on Kindle Unlimited and was a free ebook today. I wouldn't pay more than 99¢ for the ebook. If you can get it on sale I say go for it!

Silly Milly is adorable
My kids keep asking to read A Silly Milly Christmas over and over again. They love all of the silly things Milly does and the trouble she causes by being a curious pup. With a face so sweet, how can anyone not love Milly?

Repetitive But a Fun Festive Read
A Silly Milly Christmas is a book that shows all the silly things a dog could get up to during the festive season as we get to experience it through watching a Great Dane called Milly.It's fun to see all the silly things Milly finds herself doing like getting in the tree or kissing under the mistletoe. The lines in the story are very repetitive with the same few lines being repeated on each page. This is the kind of thing children love as it helps them join in but it does get a bit boring to read after a while.The illustrations are brilliant and it's great to see through the pictures the silliness and mischief of Milly the Great Dane. The illustrations give a festive feel and are lots of fun to see a dog in the festive season.This is a great book, it is a bit repetitive but this doesn't take away from the fun of the book. Perfect for dog lovers and a nice Christmas read.
