Reach for this book when your child starts asking, "But who gives Santa a present?" It is the perfect choice for fostering a sense of gratitude and outward-thinking during a season often focused on getting rather than giving. The story follows a thoughtful little mouse who decides that the busiest man in the world deserves a surprise of his own, modeling proactive kindness and the joy of a selfless mission. As the mouse travels through various festive scenes, children are invited to participate in a counting journey that builds early math skills alongside the narrative. The book uses interactive elements like stand-ups and magnifying lenses to create a sense of wonder and discovery. It is an ideal read for preschoolers and early elementary students who are ready to transition from being passive recipients of holiday magic to active participants in spreading joy to others.
