About the Author

Leila Boukarim was born in Lebanon, raised in several countries, and now lives in Singapore. Having spent a big chunk of her childhood in Montreal, she often finds herself dreaming of the white Christmases she grew to love all those years ago. Leila has learned, however, that a Christmas spent with the people she loves most is the best kind of Christmas, snow or no snow.

About the Illustrator

Barbara Moxham was born in winter in Munich and loves a snowy, white Christmas full of steaming mugs of hot chocolate, the smell of spicy cinnamon, and hot German Christmas cookies eaten straight from the oven. Growing up in Sydney and living in Singapore means her Christmases are now always warm, but that's because she's lucky enough to be surrounded by her loving family and friends.
