Pastoral watercolors set a quietly reflective tone for this distinctly English tale of a small teddy bear celebrating the holidays with his friends at Paradise Farm. Ashforth offers a charmingly idealized view of the holidays, from decorating and baking to a Christmas Eve celebration with a trio of other teddies. The illustrations include a priceless view of Willow's best friend, Little Pig Pink, hopefully clutching his as-yet-empty stocking in his sleep.
