Is there a way they can have a perfect Christmas --- without chopping down the perfect tree?Part of the popular Life in the Wild picture book series from author-illustrator Nicholas Oldland, this funny romp is, at its heart, a contemporary fable championing the importance of family, friends and traditions while promoting the joys of nature, specifically, the wilder parts of the outdoors. Oldland's distinctive, simple and playful illustrations tell much of the tale on their own, with lots of visual humor in the lovable characters' facial expressions and their numerous asides throughout. The hilarious text and artwork make this book a terrific read-aloud. It would also work to launch a discussion about celebrations and traditions, or about problem-solving and compromising.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A beary green Christmas book.--<i><b>Kirkus Reviews</b></i><br><br>Those who join this animal trio on their wild adventure in this lighthearted, entertaining picture book are sure to find laughter and joy along the way.--<i><b>CM Magazine</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Nicholas Oldland earned a degree in fine arts at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick, Canada, and enjoyed success as a commercial artist and filmmaker before taking up the role of creative director at Hatley/Little Blue House, a popular apparel company.
