Delicate watercolors evoke the wonder of childhood as Willow, the gentle bear, prepares for a perfect Christmas with all of his friends on Paradise Farm. On the morning of Christmas Eve, Willow jumps out of bed, joyful to see that snow is falling. There's much to do - gathering holly, wrapping presents, and searching for just the right tree to trim with Little Pig Pink and the rest of his animal friends. Soon it's time to hang up the stockings and snuggle back into bed - with hopes that Santa Claus will come in the night.
Lovely and Charming in a throroughly British sort of way!

I love the Willow books. They are so charming, and sweet, and gentle. The watercolour illustrations too are soft and muted and downright adorable. Especially this Christmas story contains some pictures so sweet and pretty I'd like to frame them!These books are perfect for a soothing, quiet story before bedtime--I would recommmend them for 3 to 6 year olds.If you like stories with a delicious British flavour--like Wind in the Willows or The Hobbit--then you will definitely love these delightful picture books, in which Willow lives "on Paradise Farm, at the bottom of Appleby Downs".
WONDERFUL WILLOW!!!

Picked up this sweet and gentle holiday book last year to share with my then 7 year old daughter. We both LOVED it! Willow and his friend, Little Pig Pink live on quiet Paradise Farm where they celebrate a beautiful sweet and giving Christmas with friends and farm animals. Colorful darling pictures and whimsical scenes with farm animals in their holiday best are so fun. This is a quiet story with a calming effect, perfect for bedtime. Enjoy!
