A Very Mercy Christmas is a children's picture book new to SCRL just in time for Christmas.
What first caught my eye was the illustrations. I love detailed, bright colorful pages and this book certainly didn't disappoint.
Stella Endicott feels joyful and wants to go caroling but can't find anyone to go with her. One by one, everyone refuses her request to join her. Everyone that is, except Mercy Pig and General Washington, the cat. Eventually Stella asks the question, "Do you think just one person can carol?" As it turns out, one person with joy can touch a lot of lives and something miraculous can happen on Deckawoo Drive.
Read this book with your children/grandchildren and talk about what brings you joy!
