Description

When Christmas arrives, Roland runs to the decorated Christmas tree to see what gift awaits him. However, what his eyes behold causes him to freeze: Was he waiting all year for this tiny package? But this is the smallest gift he has ever seen! A clever Christmas story from the award-winning and beloved Peter Reynolds, reminding us that a tiny gift can simultaneously be very large. And that the best gift is often something we already have.

WHAT THEY SAID ABOUT THE BOOK An imaginative story full of tenderness and warmth, touching on a topic... that is anything but small. Kirkus Reviews. A boy with high expectations for Christmas discovers that size is very relative when it comes to gifts. Roland's red polka-dotted pajamas add a festive touch to the playful vignettes, highlighting the ample white space of the pages and Reynolds' suggestive, concise text. Publishers Weekly. A story that encapsulates the well-known phrase "it's not about the quantity, but the quality" and emphasizes the value of family; the perfect Christmas gift. School Library Journal. Reynolds' simple illustrations, sometimes funny and sometimes touching, make this little book a big Christmas gift. Booklist Online. A small book with a big heart. USA Today. A wonderful story about the perfect Christmas gift: family. The Huffington Post.
