In "The Animals' Santa," Jan Brett delivers a charming Christmas story perfect for young readers aged 3-7. Little Snow, a spunky rabbit, is full of questions about the animals' Santa, much to the amusement and slight frustration of his older friend, Big Snowshoe. As Little Snow asks various forest creatures who they think Santa might be, he remains unconvinced, believing his friends are just teasing him. On Christmas Eve, Big Snowshoe is determined to help Little Snow experience the magic, leading to a delightful reveal that brings joy to all the animals. This board book edition is ideal for little hands, featuring Brett's signature intricate illustrations that invite close inspection, making it a wonderful addition to any family's holiday collection. It gently explores themes of curiosity, belief, and community spirit.
Now a board book just right for the littlest hands, this modern Christmas classic highlighting how animals are just as curious as kids about their own Santa makes the perfect stocking stuffer. When Big Snowshoe tells Little Snow that the animals’ Santa is coming with presents for everyone, Little Snow wants to know who he is. The animals say they have never seen him. Maybe he’s a badger, a moose, a polar bear, or a wolf, they tell him. But this spunky little rabbit thinks they are just fooling him. On Christmas Eve, Big Snowshoe is determined to make Little Snow into a believer, and all of the animals are delighted when he succeeds, including the animals' Santa. Love of animals, winter, and all things Christmas is on grand display in this original holiday story, a perfect edition to families' Jan Brett holiday collection.
