Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When a little girl finds out her family is planning a "simple" Christmas this year, she's not so sure about it. But soon she gets into the spirit of simplicity and generosity by making presents and Christmas decorations with her parents and grandparents on their family farm. She and her mama share Christmas cookies with friends they meet, inviting everyone to join them for Christmas in their little red barn.
Warm and heartfelt, this story invites children and families to imagine an inclusive Christmas, focusing on the simple pleasures of connection, community, and the care and generosity shared by making things by hand. Step-by-step directions for creating three handmade Christmas gifts are included at the end of the book.
Full of warmth and nostalgia, the Countryside Holiday series celebrates family, community, simplicity, and generosity.
A young girl is skeptical when her parents declare they will have a simple Christmas focused on giving rather than getting, but soon their old barn is filled with food, fun, friends, and homemade gifts. Includes directions for making star ornaments, Christmas card coasters, and melted crayon rocks.
Ages 3-8. Beaming Books.
