Reviews

"Young children will easily relate to Little Raccoon's feelings of loneliness and lack of belonging. The welcoming circle of animals underscores the clearly spelled out Christmas message of love, friendship, and inclusion. This sequel to A Birthday Party for Jesus (2017) is tailor-made for a Sunday school Advent lesson. (Picture book/religion. 3-6)" Kirkus Reviews
