A New York Times Bestseller
“Brett's watercolor-and-gouache illustrations feature both soft and
bright colors, with fine lines and copious textures to peruse. . .
Between the opulent farmhouse with decorative plates on the walls,
the sleigh with sleigh bells, and the lack of adults, combined with
a comfortably heated interior, this is a winter idyll.” --Kirkus

meticulously detailed scenarios.” --Publishers Weekly
