NO PEEKING AT PRESENTS

No Peeking at Presents will be my Alastair's eleventh children's book and will be published by HMH/Clarion Books.  It will be illustrated by Sara Not and is a very merry Christmas story about three siblings who can’t resist sneaking a peek under the tree before it’s time.  Here’s the official synopsis…

Everyone knows there’s no peeking at presents before Christmas morning. But what if there’s a very, very good reason to take a look? It’s Christmas Eve and the three kids in this story are trying their best to go to sleep, but something keeps waking them up. And it’s not just their excitement for gifts. Or, at least, not only because they’re excited for gifts. This irresistible Christmas story, equal parts hilarious and charming, captures all the delicious anticipation of the holiday, especially celebrating it with siblings.
