Join Big and Small as they discover that the best part of Christmas isn’t the gifts or the glitter, the sharing or the caring--it’s everything all at once! Featuring gender-neutral pronouns throughout, this sweet story for children ages 3-7 is a celebration of all the ways we show our love to the important people in our lives during the holiday season.

This sweet story, which features gender-neutral pronouns, follows the friendship between a bear (Big) and a child (Small) at Christmas. The two best friends love to celebrate all the fun things that come with the holidays--decorating the tree, listening to Christmas carols, making snow angels, and visiting friends. And together, they discover that the best part of Christmas is doing all these magical things together!
Stella J. Jones lives in Yorkshire, England. She loves baked beans and chocolate (but not together) and building ramshackle bookcases for her much-too-big collection of picture books. On sunny days, you can find her practicing yoga al fresco and on rainy days, curled up on the sofa with her two guinea pigs, Pinky and Perky.

Jane Massey studied graphic design at Kingston University. She worked for several design agencies in London and Hong Kong before concentrating on illustration. As well as producing numerous children’s books, Jane has also created illustrations for advertising, greeting cards, and packaging. Jane lives by the sea in Hove, England, with her young family.
