Experience the magic of authentic giving in this holiday classic from the Newbery Award-winning author of Sarah, Plain and Tall .
All year long Lily and Liam look forward to the holidays at their grandparents' farm. It's always the perfect trip: walking to the lilac library, trimming the tree, giving gifts. But this year, thanks to a white cow alone in the meadow, things will be different. This holiday, Lily and Liam will find out the meaning of a special gift.
This holiday classic from a beloved author rings in the season by celebrating the joys of family, community, and true giving.
Ages 7-11.
While spending Christmas at their grandparents' farm, Lily becomes convinced that her younger brother Liam is right about White Cow being lonely and helps him seek a companion for her, leaving little time for Christmas preparations or reading.
