It's the night before the night before Christmas, and the North Pole is bustling.
Santa is checking his list, the elves are packing stockings, and the reindeer are being brushed and polished for the big night. After a long day, all Santa wants is a cozy chair, a little cheese and baguette, and a good night's sleep.
But out in the barn, something is going on.
The elves and reindeer have been planning a surprise of their own: a party for the one who spends every Christmas giving to everyone else. There's cocoa and a warm plaid blanket, a new compass for the journey ahead, and a simple card asking a question no one has ever asked Santa before: What do YOU want for Christmas?
Told in joyful rhyme and brought to life with warm cut-paper illustrations, Christmas Eve Eve is a playful, heartwarming twist on a classic tale. This year, the North Pole has a gift for Santa.
And look closely: a little Christmas mouse is hiding on every page. Can you find her?
Perfect for ages 3-7 and for reading aloud together all season long.
