From beloved bestselling author Marianne Richmond comes her classic holiday book now with refreshed illustrations and lyrical text. You Are My Merry is a heartfelt gift that beautifully showcases the holiday magic in the emotions we all feel as parents.

But I already know, my child, my dear, my best gift of all is happily here! You are my silly when we play in the snow, making tunnels and forts with trees all aglow.

You are my sweet when we make festive treats like popcorn on strings and more holiday eats.

Perfect as a gift from a parent, grandparent, or anyone who has a child in their life.
