On the longest night of the year, Owl asks who can help “shine the light and share a gift of hope this night.” Deer, Squirrel, Mouse, Duck, Rabbit, Raccoon, and Chickadee help decorate the tree with gifts to share. There is a page that requires the pages to fold out and the book to be tilted to see the tree in its entirety. The lyrical text and beautiful illustrations bring a soft gentleness to the book that feels like soft falling snow.
