On the whole, I found Milo's Christmas Parade quite sweet, appreciating the heartwarming story (I loved how supportive the passel was!) and the cute artwork. I also appreciated the fact that this is a story that must be close to its creator's heart, given the fact that she has worked as a designer and sculptor for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
