<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A little too much Christmas cheer...</b></p><p>Kerry's family goes completely berserk with Christmas every year. Starting the day after Thanksgiving, her home becomes a whirlwind of lights, music, and elves, elves, elves!</p><p>Sometimes it gets a little overwhelming.</p><p>This year, Kerry is desperate for some peace and quiet. Heading outdoors, she realizes a lot of her neighbors are having a Christmas too big. But not Mrs. Flores. She's having a much quieter Christmas, complete with decorations and music from the country where she used to live. It sparks an idea: maybe there's a way for Kerry to create her own Christmas traditions.</p><p>But will anyone in her crazy Christmas house understand? Join Kerry as she finds her voice in this delightful holiday tale.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"The illustrations use speech bubbles in both English and Spanish to advance the story; the art perfectly reflects the overload, relief, and joy that Kerry experiences: Busy spreads give way to simpler ones, and a refreshing new color scheme is introduced with the paper flowers...An intergenerational friendship and a busy holiday made meaningful set this title apart." <b>--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b></p><p>"Madden's bilingual tale strikes both humorous and poignant notes; the visual blend of comic-style panels, playful fonts, speech bubbles in both English and Spanish, and traditional spreads offers readers plenty to celebrate." <b>--<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></p><br>
