Growing up in Michigan as a child, with snow at least a foot deep covering the ground and festive lights hung on every home in our neighborhood, Christmas was always a magical time for me. Hours of sledding in the deep snow were followed by steaming cups of hot chocolate. The warmth of the fire in our stone fireplace quickly removed the chill I felt. I often took long hikes in the snowy woods behind our home. Here the stillness of the snowy landscape proved to be a perfect environment for my overactive imagination. I would often wonder what it would be like to discover an object, a magical object here in the middle of the woods…hmm, what if?

This book was inspired by those many years of magical white Christmases.

I hope you enjoy this, my second children’s book, The Magic Sled.
