The days after Christmas / by Rudd, Maggie,author.(CARDINAL)863296; Chavarri, Elisa,illustrator.(CARDINAL)493766;
After the bustle of the holiday season, grandparents wave goodbye and it's time to pack up the sparkly ornaments. The house feels too quiet. What do you do when the excitement and festivities are over? The fireplace may be a perfect place to read new books with a cup of hot cocoa and some snuggles with Mom and Dad. And leftovers might still be pretty tasty. Upon reflection, the memories of the Christmas season can bring smiles, not sadness--and a hopefulness that there's still so much to look forward to.

Chickadee : criminal mastermind / by Silvie, Monica,author.(CARDINAL)870569; Ellis, Elina,illustrator.(CARDINAL)607044;
Includes bibliographical references."Watch out on your next walk through the forest, because you just might encounter a real rapscallion in the form of a tiny bird! In this hilarious tale, Chickadee recounts how he went from a normal bird 'childhood' to a daring life of crime. One cold, snowy morning, shivering and hungry, he discovers a vault of gold -- and steals from it! His natural colouring resembling a mask helps him blend in as he makes his rounds of the forest. It's an exciting life, with hawks to fend off and treasure to hide all over the forest... but is it as glamorous as it appears? It can get pretty lonely being a fearsome marauder, and it might be nice to have a friend. When Chickadee is spotted one day, he learns that stealing gold may be fun, but making friends is easier than he thinks."--AD530LAccelerated Reader AR
