Inspired by Little Souls, the whimsical handmade dolls cherished bycollectors young and old, here's a picture book that captures the heart-and soul-of the season. In their bustling workshop, two dressmakers sew a many-pocketed red velvet coat just for a little girl. As she fills the pockets with treasures, the enchanted coat grows...and grows! One magical night, Father Christmas arrives, seeking something warm for his ride, and the coat is a perfect fit. Before offering her gift, the child tucks one last surprise into a pocket-a very special message of Christmas joy. A velvety binding, ribbon closure, and, of course, a real pocket and note make this an extra-special holiday keepsake. Colleen Charleston is the cofounder of Little Souls, Inc., specializing in handmade cloth dolls.
