Description
After the bustle of the holidays, grandparents wave goodbye and it's time to pack up the sparkly decorations. The house feels too quiet. What do you do when the excitement and festivities are over? The fireplace may be a perfect place to read new books with a cup of hot cocoa and some snuggles with Mum and Dad. And holiday leftovers might still be pretty tasty. Upon reflection, the memories of the Christmas season can bring smiles, not sadness - and a hopefulness that there's still so much to look forward to. THE DAYS AFTER CHRISTMAS is a heartwarming picture book that shows readers that they can find just as much magic in stillness. Includes backmatter that features a holiday craft!
A joyful reminder of the beauty to be found amid the quiet of the post-holiday season.
