“The Night the Reindeer Came to Play” by Maria Votto, illustrated by Karen Tanch, is available worldwide. This lighthearted, whimsical children’s book tells the story of a group of mischievous reindeer that visit a young child’s home on Christmas Eve. One by one, the reindeer arrive and get into all sorts of trouble!
Inspired by the author’s love of reading and writing, as well as the songs she made up for her daughter when she was a toddler, this holiday story began as scribbled verses that were later found in a keepsake box. After rediscovering the work in progress, the book came to fruition as a true family effort: the author and illustrator are sisters! The silly hijinks of the reindeer will draw kids into the story, and the engaging rhymes serve as a teaching aid for counting the arrival of each new guest! With bright illustrations and plenty of holiday cheer, this quick read is the perfect mix of education and entertainment for little ones.
The Night the Reindeer Came to Play (ISBN: 9781735755427) can be purchased through retailers worldwide, including Barnes and Noble and Amazon. The hardcover retails for $14.95. Review copies and interviews are available upon request.
