Always Together at Christmas is a very timely, tender picture
book exploring unique and new ways for us to celebrate the holidays during the
Covid-19 pandemic. “The magic of
Christmas is hared from family to family, from friend to friend.” But what
happens when we are quarantined? What happens if we need to protect elderly grandparents
or friends and family at risk? We dream up new traditions (and we give thanks
for each blessing!) “No matter where we celebrate, or how we celebrate, we’ll
find a way to celebrate each other on the most wonderful day of the year.”
Always Together at Christmas is beautifully written and
colorfully illustrated. Christmas will
always be a time to celebrate even if it looks different this year. Sargent concludes her book with a list of 8
creative ideas to help the reader start new Christmas traditions in the midst
of this pandemic. We loved the detailed
illustrations with little elves and Santa wearing masks!
