This classic holiday book about forest animals celebrating the spirit of Christmas makes a perfect gift for boys and girls 3 - 5 years old.
It's Christmas time in the forest, but this year there isn't much for the animals to celebrate. It's been a cold, snowy winter and food is scarce. Clara, a little deer, is worried about Christmas, so she wishes
on a star for help. The next day Clara hears the sound of bells in the distance. As she follows the magical sound, she is joined by a squirrel and a rabbit. When they stumble onto a stash of nuts and berries, they decide to share it with everyone in the forest. After all, sharing is giving, and
that's what Christmas is all about. This beautiful, heart-warming story is about giving and sharing and helping wishes come true.
