Summary

Bear, Fox and Seal are quick to become friends as they journey to Santa Claus's palace, each eager to make their holiday wish before Christmas morning. On the way, they run into a rather skeptical elf, some dashing reindeer, and a very helpful Mrs.Claus. When at last they meet the big man himself, even Santa Claus is surprised by the wishes they make.

Written in charming and accessible rhyme, this is a tender story of friendship, home, and the importance of the Earth. The magic of this book reminds children that Christmas is more about giving than receiving, and that some wishes only come true when everyone works together.

Glittering illustrations keep children engaged at every step of the journey and bring the characters, plot and message to life. An immersive and endearing read, this is sure to become a fast holiday favorite and one of those stories the family looks forward to reading year after year.
