“It was Christmas Eve. Noah and Lucy had been waiting all day for snowflakes to fall?' Lucy and Noah open a present on Christmas Eve. It's a beautiful snow globe, with a house inside that even looks like theirs, except they don't have any snow. Lucy lies awake looking at the snow globe, disappointed that it won't be a white Christmas. Suddenly, she feels something soft and cold land on her cheek. It can't really be snowing inside the house, can it? Cosy and comforting, this charming picture book about festive excitement imagines a very special Christmas Eve where Lucy and Noah build a snowman in their bedroom, sledge down the stairs and fling snowballs over the sofa. The Christmas Snow Globe is a celebration of the power and magic of children's imaginations, lovingly illustrated in a distinctive style with warm colours.
What we say: The illustrations have a magical nostalgic quality to them (reminded me a little of Ray Cruz’s work) and the story is full of gentle excitement and anticipation. I mean, it’s the dream of many kids (and grown ups!) I would think - sledging down your snow covered stairs on Christmas Eve (as long as it didn’t leave everything wet and soggy I guess - that would be a bit of a nightmare) It’s definitely one to be read in the lead up to Christmas - would warm even Scrooge’s heart!
