    Hardcover (NorthSouth, Oct. 1, 2006)
    With twenty-four stories--""one for each night in December as we count down to Christmas--""this is a perfect book to share with the whole family.

For those, we have included a short piece explaining what that tradition is, where it comes from, and how it ties into our own customs. The lush illustrations from Austrian illustrator Silke Leffler are reminiscent of Zwerger at her best. Complete with a ribbon marker, this is a gift book to treasure for years to come.
