Since families were continuing to use the Advent Tree during the Advent season, we did not want to overwhelm them during an already hectic season. Instead, families were given an opportunity to slow down by being presented with a storybook on the Third Sunday of Advent, following the children's Christmas pageant.
The book was chosen because of its description of the season rather than its retelling of the biblical story. This particular book also connected the families to the book that was given for Easter in the spring - the same author and characters.
