Celebrate Christmas with Kermit and Miss Piggy. Kids will love O. Henry's beloved Christmas Story about the true meaning of the holiday-that giving is more important than having and loving is most important of all-retold in the innovative Story Book Set & Advent Calendar format. Following The Nutcracker, The Story of Christmas, and A Christmas Carol (together with over 330,000 copies in print), The Gift of the Magi has been made even more appealing to young readers through the Muppets' quirky humor.
Numbered 1 through 24, like the windows of a traditional Advent calendar, the miniature full-color board books are meant to be opened and read, one per day, from December 1st through Christmas Eve. With their gold thread loops and four different trim sizes, the books are also meant to be used as Christmas tree ornaments. Over 68,000 copies in print.
