That Christmas

By Stéphanie Demasse-Pottier

Illustrated Christmas story follows two mischievous young bunnies determined to wake early and discover what happens before the rest of their family rises.

In That Christmas, the whole bunny clan has gathered under one roof for the holiday: parents, siblings, aunts, uncles and grandparents. While everyone settles in for Christmas Eve, two little bunnies make a plan to be the first awake on Christmas morning so they can catch a glimpse of the mysterious visitor before he leaves.

Their excitement gives the story its momentum, but the larger focus is the pleasure of a multigenerational family being together. St phanie Demasse-Pottier's narrative and Lucie David's illustrations turn anticipation, secrecy and holiday curiosity into a warm picture-book celebration of reunion.

The book is designed for shared seasonal reading and works naturally in Christmas displays, children's holiday collections and gift markets. Its appeal comes from a familiar childhood wish to stay awake for the magic of Christmas combined with the comfort and bustle of a large family gathering.
