Reach for this book when your child starts to notice the people on the sidelines of holiday celebrations, or when you want to discuss how small acts of companionship can transform a person's outlook. It is a gentle, folktale style story about an elderly woman who has grown crusty and cynical after years of lonely Christmases. When she meets a magical child from the stars who is equally curious and out of place, they form an unexpected bond. This story beautifully addresses themes of isolation, the value of the elderly, and the true meaning of the holidays through a lens of wonder. It is a perfect choice for parents who want to move beyond the commercial side of the season and explore the emotional depth of connection and hospitality with children aged 5 to 10.
