This is a an absolutely adorable book that any vintage lover (like me) would adore! Full of sweet illustrations featuring gnomes, deer (and other cute woodland creatures), angels, happy children...it's sooo cute! But aside from that, the stories are very sweet and will capture children's attention. If you have young kids, this is must-have at Christmas time! (Amazon customer)
