My Little Pony A Very Minty Christmas Jr. Cine-Manga


My Little Pony A Very Minty Christmas Jr. Cine-Manga
Ages 3-8 - pretty much just for little girls.

This is based on the straight to video Very Minty Christmas video. The pictures are bright. The words are large and easy to read. There are lots of exclamation points!
(For example, on the back cover "It's Christmas in PONYVILLE"!).
This is a simple My Little Pony book that assumes that the reader is already familiar with the My Little Pony brand.
Minty breaks something so decides to appeal to Santa Claus in the North Pole to help her make it right. She adventures North in a hot air balloon to see Santa. I don't want to ruin the ending, but I think you can guess that there is a happy ending because this is a My Little Pony book and it is a Christmas book.

My Little Pony: Friends Are Never Far Away!


My Little Pony: Friends Are Never Far Away! Jr. Cine-Manga by Tokyopop

Children's Fiction

Ages 3-6

Cute. Friendly. Girly. Insubstantial. I just read this and can't remember much about it. The Pegasus ponies are shy and the landbound ponies want to be friends. Can their worlds come together? Giggle. Wee! Yes! We all know that it has to have a happy ending.
For its target audience (5 year old girls) this is exactly what they want. This book was not meant for the rest of us.
