Overview

A funny and heartwarming Christmas story from award-winning children's book author Barbara Leary. On a quiet farm one snowy Christmas Eve, a young girl settles in by the fire-cozy, content, and waiting for her cocoa to brew-when a crash in the woods shatters the stillness. The fire is burning low, and to fetch more logs, she must leave the warmth of her home and brave the cold, dark forest. With an axe in hand and her heart pounding, she ventures into the night, unsure of what might be lurking in the shadows. Told in lyrical rhyme and brought to life with enchanting illustrations, this whimsical holiday tale is rich with mystery, gentle suspense, and seasonal magic. What begins as a nighttime fright turns into a surprising encounter-and a reminder that not everything in the dark is meant to be feared. Perfect for cozy read-alouds and holiday storytimes, this winter adventure celebrates courage, kindness, and the unexpected friendships that can light up even the coldest nights. Ideal for children ages 4-8 and families looking for a fresh, delightful addition to their Christmas bookshelf. A story to return to year after year-and a gentle reminder that the true spirit of Christmas can shine bright in any season.
