Celebrate the magic of Christmas with the story of Jingle, the littlest reindeer who sets out to earn her place on Santa’s team, and shows what’s possible even when the odds (and antlers) are against you.

In the magical North Pole, little Jingle has one big dream: to earn her magic bells and fly with Santa’s team. But in a world full of strong and mighty reindeer, Jingle stands out for being... well, small. When the annual Reindeer Games put her to the test, Jingle will need more than speed and strength to succeed—she’ll need heart, hope, and a whole lot of ingenuity.

With her loyal pup Holly Jolly by her side, Jingle tackles tinsel-filled tasks and an avalanche of snowy challenges on her way to unwrapping the greatest gift of all: the true meaning of Christmas cheer.

From Marvel Comics creator MacKenzie Cadenhead and the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator of Buffalo Fluffalo, Erin Kraan, comes a festive tale that's a sleighful of holiday magic. Jingle's journey reminds readers that sometimes, the best presents come in unexpected packages.

Series Overview: A charming Christmas picture book series about a determined little reindeer who proves there’s more than one way to shine on Santa’s team. Featuring illustrations from the #1 New York Times bestselling artist of BUFFALO FLUFFALO, the series celebrates belonging, creative thinking, and discovering that the spirit of the season often comes from the most unexpected places.
