The Happiest Christmas

A picturesque small town in England just before Christmas is the setting for the picture-book debut of well-known English dollmaker Lynne Roche. The Happiest Christmas tells the story of two young girls, Jenny and Laura, who perform a simple good deed for an injured cat one late-November afternoon. Their kind act leads to the fulfillment of their Christmas wishes. Adult readers will appreciate the charm of the evocative illustrations, while children will delight in this story featuring nostalgic toys, playful kittens and dreams that come true.
