It’s Christmas Eve, and the air is tingling with excitement. Hugo the mouse and his family are busy decorating their attic home for the most magical night of the year. But this season, the downstairs is quiet—without an ounce of yuletide cheer. Just a bare tree, with no garland, no bows, and no big sparkly star. Can Hugo hatch a plan to bring some of the joy from upstairs to the lonely man downstairs, who’s spending this holiday without his loved ones?
This little mouse family with big, brave hearts will inspire young readers to spread kindness not just during the Christmas season, but all year round.
