About the Book

The Stocking Stuffer is the ultimate Christmas gift, as this sweet picture book is designed to fit perfectly in a stocking, and adds a new chapter to Christmas lore: an explanation of just how Santa manages to fill all those stockings on Christmas Eve!

'Twas the night before Christmas, when not long ago,

A tradition began that few children know . . .

It’s Christmas Eve and for the first time ever, Santa’s naughty list is empty! With a terrible blizzard raging outside, how will Santa be able to deliver Christmas magic to every single home before morning?

Meet Tinsel, the Stocking Stuffer!

A little mouse with a big heart, Tinsel is ready to be Santa’s special helper on this important night. As Santa places gifts under the tree, Tinsel stuffs each stocking with care. But what about when a stocking is missing from the mantel?

This festive story introduces a loveable new character into the classic holiday lore and celebrates spreading Christmas cheer to all. 

Critical Praise

Merriweather tweaks beloved lore just enough to spark readers’ imaginations anew—and keep them on the lookout for a tiny mouse decked out in a Santa suit. The book’s tall, narrow trim size suggests a stocking’s shape, and Graegin’s digital artwork features a surfeit of shadowy, decoration- and present-filled backdrops, befitting the protagonists’ journey between sleepy homes in the dark of night. — Publishers Weekly
