Something For Christmas by Palmer Brown

Something For Christmas by Palmer Brown

What are you doing, dear?
It's a secret.
Secrets are better if you share them a little. So tell Mother why you look so sad on Christmas Eve.
I am wondering what to give--someone--for Christmas.

So begins the story of a little mouse's search for a very special gift for a very special person. Nothing seems just right until the little mouse realizes that the best present of all is already at hand.

Palmer Brown has given us something special for Christmas--or any day--an entrancingly lovely story, filled with the true spirit of the holiday season.

Palmer Brown (1920-2012) was born in Chicago and attended Swarthmore and the University of Pennsylvania. He is the author and illustrator of five books for children: Beyond the Pawpaw Trees and its sequel, The Silver Nutmeg, Something for Christmas, Cheerful, and Hickory (all available from the New York Review Children's Collection). About Beyond the Pawpaw Trees, his first published book, Brown said, If it has any moral at all, it is hoped that it will always be a deep secret between the author and those of his readers who still know that believing is seeing.
