Praise for this book

"The story is as warm as the fire over which people are roasting marshmallows at the book's conclusion. Avril's ink-and-and-watercolor pictures, highlighted with pinks and reds, go for both tenderness and giggles and get readers into the spirit of this special day." --Booklist

"[Ruby's] enthusiasm and generosity are infectious." --Publishers Weekly

"Splattered with pink and hearts, the cartoon art is joyful and energetic while the landscapes have a Seuss-like quality. . . . This good-natured story shows what really matters during holidays: spending time with people you love." --School Library Journal
