Queen of Christmas


Mary Engelbreit's distinctive illustrations perfectly align with this heartwarming story about a little girl and her " list".

The list is so long... and everything Ann Estelle does reminds her to put more and more items on her list. Hmmm.. does she sound like anyone you know?

Well, needless to say, Ann Estelle does not get everything on her list but at then end of the day she happily tells her parents "It was Christmas exactly the way I wanted".

Baking cookies with her mother, sledding with her father, skating with her grandmother...these are the things that made it perfect. "It's not just the presents that matter," she tells her dad. "Don't you know that? "
