"Courtney-Tickle’s friendly digital illustrations teem with life, while the sparkly, snow-dappled trees and lift-the-flap surprises are pleasantly reminiscent of an Advent calendar." – Publishers Weekly (starred review)
One white and snowy night, a little Christmas tree stands alone in the forest. Everything is white and lifeless. As the night goes on, there are signs of life: an orange fox, a red-breasted robin, a cloud of fireflies. By the end of the book, the little Christmas tree is transformed by nature. Another glorious lift-the-flap exploration of nature in the same series as Little Tree and Little Honeybee.
Jessica Courtney-Tickle is an illustrator, writer, and creative based in Cambridge, U.K. She creates her work through a combination of watercolor, gouache, and digital drawing.

The old-fashioned feel of this extra-large board book invites exploration of the natural world...ideal for one-on-one reading and quiet conversation. The sense of wonder and awe this artistic board book evokes should not be limited to the Christmas season. —Kirkus Reviews
