From debut author Kelsey Gross and New York Times bestselling illustrator Renata Liwska comes a gentle and lulling picture book celebrating the magic of the Winter Solstice with a group of animal friends in a quiet forest.

Tonight is the longest night of the year—solstice is here! Deep in the forest, the dark, cold, and quiet of winter is all around. Owl watches sunlight dim to a shimmer. Who can help Owl to shine the light and share a gift of hope on this winter evening?

Along come Deer, Squirrel, Mouse, Duck, Rabbit, Raccoon, and Chickadee, and together they welcome a new friend to join them in their winter solstice celebration.
