Red & Green
Lois Ehlert, illustrated by Lois Ehlert
A small mouse interrupts a wintry version of “The Night Before Christmas” in this rhyming holiday story. Across die-cut pages, the mouse encounters seasonal images including wreaths, garland, mittens, cookies, fresh snow, and a snowman. After enjoying a sweet snack, the mouse settles into a bed made from a mitten. The book’s cutouts create peeks and reveals as the story moves through the house, ending when a red-suited visitor notices the missing cookies.
