NEW BOOK RELEASE 🎉 When Alice Sleeps: CHRISTMAS ALPHABET ~ Reading Together

Join Alice and the gang on a magical festive journey from A-Z, one colourful letter at time! 🌈
Hope you and the kiddies enjoy our new ‘READING TOGETHER’ series of books ~ let us know what you think!✌️

What’s inside:
✨ Bright, cheerful Christmas artwork for every letter, creatively shaped and illustrated.
✨ Short, joyful rhyming couplets that are easy to read out loud.
✨ Alice and the gang bringing holiday cheer to every page in their signature way.

Perfect for children aged 3-6 (but particularly focused for early readers). We created this book because Alice really enjoys rhythm and repetition in words! Designed and illustrated with the intent to bring families together for reading fun - afterall, for many nowadays, sharing a book with a child is a cherished activity.
BOOK APPROVED BY ALICE 🌟
