Always Together at Christmas

Description

Christmas will always mean love.
Even if love looks a little different this year.
As families and communities come together–and stay apart–in creative ways this holiday season, bring comfort and joy to children with this story about a Christmas like no other.
Always Together at Christmas highlights different family traditions and the ways they’re changing in 2020: from Santa’s elves practicing social distancing to opening presents via Zoom on Christmas morning. And it even includes ideas for new quarantine-appropriate Christmas traditions!
The sweet and cozy illustrations add classic touches, making this book the perfect gift to share with family and friends from across the miles.
