The ideal holiday gift for readers of all ages!

One snowy night, as Christmas Eve is present, and the moon is full, a little puppy named Jingle finds himself lost in the cold. Hungry, and craving the warmth of a fire, and his kind owners, he begins searching for the home that is quickly evading him. As he passes by various humble abodes, he peeks in each and every window, hoping to find the one that belongs to his master. But poor little Jingle only finds a family of foxes hanging up holiday stockings, polar bears singing cheerful Christmas songs, snow hares decorating their bushy tree with shiny baubles, and reindeer being hitched up to a sleigh to begin their night of spreading joy across the world. But, as Jingle passes by one of these reindeer, he comes forth and helps little Jingle find his way right back to the warmth of his home, where his upset owner presents him with a gift that will keep him safe in the future. There are many holiday books being released this season. However, none are as gorgeous as Beth Harwood's ONE SNOWY NIGHT. The prose and poetic tale about Jingle are absolutely irresistible, and give the reader a sense of love and joy; while the absolutely breathtaking illustrations by Susanna Ronchi put ONE SNOWY NIGHT ahead of all other holiday releases. The illustrations are cheerful and colorful, and are presented in a semi pop-up like fashion. However, they appear to be more 3-D, and diorama-like than the average pop-up book, which will certainly impress and appeal to young readers, along with their parents. The ideal holiday gift for readers of all ages! Erika Sorocco
