Lemming’s First Christmas

When Lemming overhears some children singing about Christmas, she can’t help but wonder about this new holiday. Qimmiq the sled dog knows all about Christmas. It’s the time of year when Santa brings presents to put under your tree!

But…what is a tree? There aren’t any trees where Lemming lives, in the treeless Arctic, so she decides to go on the hunt for a tree in order to have her very first Merry Christmas.

Filled with charming holiday illustrations featuring sweet Arctic animals, this book offers a warm and inviting new take on beloved Christmas traditions.

Praise

“A distinct and skillful take on familiar Yuletide themes.”—Kirkus

“Here, cuteness reigns and classic preschool humor is employed when the animals keep bringing things that are not trees…. A great pick for holiday board book collections, especially those in need of more diverse offerings.”—School Library Journal

“Get into the holiday season in a gentle way with Lemming’s First Christmas. It’s an easy introduction for those who may become overwhelmed with the customs of the holiday and let them see it from the perspective of a group of animals who interpret a tradition in their own way and make it a very sweet first Arctic Christmas.”—CanLit for Little Canadians
