On the night before Christmas, young Nick tells his father he is wishing Santa will bring him a loveable puppy. As he dozes off to sleep, his father tells him to listen for the "jingle of bells" on Santa's sleigh and on his eight reindeer. That night, he dreams about the North Pole with elves, reindeer, and Santa all getting ready for the long trip, followed by the sound of sleigh bells filling the night sky. When Nick wakes up he hears them, but this time it's not during a dream-but a dream come true! Children will delight in the story of a young boy's wish and the beautiful illustrations full of Christmas magic.
