Discover the magical story of Dasher, Santa’s very first
reindeer, in a Christmas gift-book to treasure year after year.
Dasher is a little doe with a wish in her heart. She spends her
days with her family under the hot sun in a travelling circus, but
she longs for a different life – one where there is snow beneath
her hooves and the North Star above her head. One day, when the
opportunity arises, Dasher seizes her destiny and takes off in
pursuit of the life she wants to live. It’s not long before she
meets a nice man in a red suit with a horse-drawn sleigh, a man
named Santa. And soon, with the help of a powerful Christmas wish,
nothing will be the same... Matt Tavares’ beautifully illustrated
and evocatively told story bristles with all the magic of the
festive season.
What if a brave Captain Cookie stood up to Santa? A fresh, funny
story that sparkles with all the excitement of a pirate adventure
-- and all the magic of Christmas morning.
It's Christmas Eve, and Jim and his mother are making pirate
gingerbread men to leave for Santa. Jim's favorite is Captain
Cookie, who carries a gingerbread cutlass and has a toothpick peg
leg. The captain is much too good to be eaten, so Jim keeps him
close by his bed. But late that night, when Jim is fast asleep,
Captain Cookie steptaps away on a daring adventure to find his
pirate crew -- and rescue them from that mysterious character he's
heard about: a cannibal named Santa Claus. At once contemporary and
timeless, suspenseful and joyous, this masterfully illustrated tale
is destined to be a new holiday classic.

Matt Tavares brings to life a winning tale of the shortest home run
in history with the help of his luminous artwork and an infectious
love of the game.
CRACK!
Somehow, Andy's bat had hit the ball. Everybody heard it . . . but
nobody saw where it went.
Andy Oyler is the shortest player on his baseball team, the
Minneapolis Millers, not to mention the whole league. And no matter
how hard he tries, he just can't seem to get a hit. But one fateful
spring day in 1903, a sudden change in the weather leads to a
change in Andy Oyler's luck--and as Andy soon discovers, even the
shortest player can become the game's biggest hero! Matt Tavares
brings one of baseball's legendary stories to life and champions
the underdog in all of us. Helping readers keep score is a
bibliography and final note from the author about this uplifting
all-American tale.

The miles cannot keep a determined bird from his loved one in this Christmas ode to serendipity and hope.
Red and Lulu make their nest in a beautiful evergreen tree. It shades them in the hot months and keeps them cosy in the cold and, once a year, the people who live nearby string lights on their tree and sing a special song: O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree. But one day, something unthinkable happens, and Red and Lulu are separated. It will take a miracle for them to find each another again. Luckily, it’s just the season for miracles...
From Matt Tavares comes a heart-tugging story combining all the cheer of Christmas, all the magic of New York City, and the real meaning of the festive season: how important it is to be surrounded by love.
