A winter wonderland awaits Little Mouse and family in this enchanting celebration of all the things that make Christmas special!

It’s Christmas, and the air is full of whispers and giggles. Little Mouse feels just as excited as everyone but wonders—what is it about Christmas that’s so magical? Grandpa explains that it’s the coziness of a warm fire and the wonderful smell of treats baking. Brother tells Little Mouse that it’s the feeling of building a snowman and playing in the snow. And Grandma says it’s the soft voices singing Christmas carols. This is an enchanting celebration of all the things that make Christmas special, now in Tiger Tales’ bestselling padded board book format.
Baby-Toddler–A young mouse seeks to understand what makes Christmastime magical. His family members describe a variety of wintry activities and experiences in short, rhyming stanzas. For example, “‘It’s stringing the tree lights,’ says Daddy,/ ‘That twinkle and glow through the night./ It’s placing the star on top of the tree./ The magic of Christmas shines bright.’” Each spread is illustrated with a very busy scene of mice in soft pastels. Any religious aspects of the holiday are not featured and there is no mention of Santa Claus, which may appeal to some families. VERDICT An additional purchase where secular Christmas books are in high demand. --School Library Journal
