It's the night before Christmas in the old house in Paris, and everyone is sick in bed, everyone except brave Madeline. Caring for eleven little girls and Miss Clavel is hard work, but with help from a magical merchant, the girls set off on a Christmas journey that chases away every sniffle and sneeze.
With Ludwig Bemelmans's whimsical drawings of Paris and his fearless little heroine, the Madeline stories have charmed readers for more than 75 years. This hardcover is an heirloom to bring out each December.
