Orla and the Christmas Snow

On Christmas Eve, Orla has a special promise to keep: she wants to tuck her little doorstep fir beneath a blanket of snow. But the first flake melts on her mitten, and the small pile she gathers scatters in the breeze. The fir is still waiting, while snow settles all around the porch. Can Orla work out where its blanket belongs?

With a lantern to light her way and a careful eye on the falling flakes, Orla faces a quiet winter-night puzzle. Her gentle determination turns an ordinary moment into a tender story about noticing, patience, and caring for something small. Written for young listeners, this cozy Christmas read-aloud invites families to enjoy the soft sounds and snowy discoveries of Orla’s evening together.
