The Christmas Sweater by Jan Brett

 On Christmas Day Theo and his dog, Ari venture out to Echo Lake- Theo, wearing his new snowshoes, and Ari, wearing a new sweater (made by Yiayia-Grandmother in Greek). Ari does not like the sweater. But when the snow flutters down and covers their tracks, the yarn from the sweater leads them home!

I like the Greek allusions.

I find that Ms. Brett's illustrations of people are not very crisp. But her illustrations of animals and setting are still stunning!
