Description

This modern Christmas classic highlights how animals are just as curious as kids about their own Santa.When Big Snowshoe tells Little Snow that the animals’ Santa is coming with presents for everyone, Little Snow wants to know who he is. The animals say they have never seen him.  Maybe he’s a badger, a moose, a polar bear, or a wolf, they tell him. But this spunky little rabbit thinks they are just fooling him.On Christmas Eve, Big Snowshoe finds a way to see the animals' Santa and a Snowy Owl in a red cap swoops down with a pack full of presents. Never again will an excited Little Snow doubt that there is an animals' Santa.

Jan Brett's love of animals, winter, and all things Christmas is on grand display in this original holiday story.

Readers who appreciate Eve Bunting's feel-good holiday tales, especially books like Christmas Cricket and Night Tree, may enjoy Jan Brett's work as well, which often features Christmas stories set in wintry locations.
