Light the candles and put the kettle on. Christmas in the Village is a large print word search book full of holiday cheer: trees and wreaths, Grandma's cookies, sled rides, carols at the door and the quiet of a silent night.

Every puzzle has its own illustration and a fun fact, and the last section travels the world, including two traditions from our Colombian roots: the Night of Little Candles and the Novena. A cozy gift for grandparents and anyone who loves the season.
