The Snow family — Mother Snow, Father Snow, and Baby Snow — want to make their favorite holiday a special one. But how to do it? They decide to hold their own Christmas celebration in the back garden of Holly Farm. They decorate the little fir tree, lay the table for Christmas, and even sing a jolly round of carols at the door. There’s just one thing missing, and it’s a big one. Will Santa pay a visit?

This brightly colored book presents five beloved nursery rhymes in a whole new way. When Humpty Dumpty teeters on the edge of that wall, he's not alone. When the mouse runs up the clock in "Hickory Dickory Dock," young readers can help him along. When Humpty Dumpty teeters on the edge of that wall, he's not alone. New readers get to watch Jack and Jill tumble down the hill; the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker bob in their tub on the sea; and the cow roller-skating over the moon. Moving panels animate each illustration, ensuring frequent return visits.

Even Santa makes mistakes, and being a little nearsighted compounds the problem. When he gets a letter from little Joe asking for a toy truck, Santa mistakes the request for a duck. And of course, this being Christmas Eve, he’s in a serious time crunch. The question is, will he spot his error in time? Fortunately, he's got trusty help in the form of his head elf Elgar and Rusty the Reindeer. If anybody can make sure Santa gets to little Joe's house before sunrise, they can!

It’s Christmas Eve, and children around the world are waiting for their presents. The sleigh team is all ready to go, but Prancer has hurt his hoof. Rusty the Reindeer is the runt of the group, and while he certainly tries hard, he’s not yet fast enough to join in. He wants to contribute, but what can he do? The answer comes when he discovers a forgotten present and has to summon all his strength to fly across the world to return it to Santa. Stella Gurney’s charming text and Sharon Williams's colorful images carry an irresistible message of Christmas cheer to young readers.
