Glorious artwork combines with lyrical poetry in this Christmas-themed celebration of storytelling.
Set in a sleepy town on Christmas Eve, the story begins with a conversation between a girl and her toy robot, who wants to know what's inside a human heart. Describing it as a series of rooms filled with storybooks, the girl sets about building the robot a heart of its own by telling stories about the quiet little town she calls home.
With rich vocabulary and a rhythmical structure, this tender story has a powerful message that will warm the hearts of readers all year round.
