About the Book



On Christmas Eve, a determined little girl overcomes thick fog and hazardous weather to visit her grandparents, relying on creativity and the magic of familial bonds.



Book Synopsis



"A bright and shiny new Christmas book." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

On a foggy Christmas Eve, a young girl's imagination runs away with her--and leads her back to a cozy night with her family. Kerilynn Wilson's luminous, magical picture book debut has all the makings of a perennial holiday classic for families and fans of Matt Tavares's Dasher and Chris van Allsburg's The Polar Express.

One little girl has the perfect present for her grandparents, and she can't wait to give it to them on Christmas Eve. So when her parents say it's not safe to travel because the weather is horrible and the fog is too thick, she has to find a way to save their Christmas tradition--even if she can barely see farther than her front porch. With a lot of imagination and maybe just a bit of magic, the girl lights a way to her grandparents' house. But--oh no!--she loses her present along the way. Luckily, Nana knows that the best gift of all is creativity and family.

With dazzling artwork and minimal text, Kerilynn Wilson's debut picture book presents one little girl's determined walk to her grandparents' house as an adventure full of magic, ingenuity, and courage. One Foggy Christmas Eve celebrates the gift of sharing your imagination and your story with those you love. For readers of Gideon Sterer's The Christmas Owl and Susan Jeffers's Jingle Bells.



Review Quotes




"It isn't easy to create a Yuletide tale that stands out on the crowded holiday shelf, but Wilson has done just that. . . . Loaded with adventure and brimming with love and joy, this is a holiday tale to be savored. Read it out loud with glee." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"A child's determination and some unexpected guides lead the way in this fantastical picture book. . . . Timeless. . . . Spare text allows Wilson's thin-lined artwork to shine as it readily communicates the book's emotional heft." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The star of this book is undoubtedly Wilson's artwork--namely the dramatic visual depth created by the battle between her swirling cool tones and the amber interior hues. . . . A solid buy for holiday collections, but the Christmas vibes are subtle enough that this wondrous story also has year-round appeal." -- School Library Journal

"Extreme fog has derailed this family's Christmas Eve visit to Nana and Papa's, but the narrator is determined to get there. . . . Stylized, swirling fog dominates dramatic exterior illustrations and influences details in inviting interior spreads in this engaging take on the perils and wonders of the season's weather." -- Horn Book Magazine
