Where Is Christmas, Jesse Bear?
with illustrator Bruce Degen

“I wanted the very youngest to participate in Christmas activities by using their senses.” -- Nancy

The story
Jesse Bear is looking for Christmas. And he finds it everywhere -- when trimming the tree, baking cookies, and going ice-skating in the park. But Jesse Bear feels Christmas most of all when he's with his family on Christmas Eve, and tucked in his bed waiting for Santa!

Review
“Jesse Bear doesn’t just welcome Christmas here. He smells it, hears it, sees it moveand touches it.” New York Times Review
