Description

Welcome to a winter wonderland! Christmas is coming, but there's still so much to do! In their tiny village in the woods, Gregory Mouse and his family are just as busy as Santa and his elves. They have gingerbread houses to decorate, presents to wrap, cookies to bake, and snowy hills to sled-all before the celebration begins! This playful holiday alphabet book offers children a miniature world filled with wonderful details-a treat that could only come from Mary Engelbreit, the beloved artist whose bestselling edition of The Night Before Christmas is already a classic.
