My daughter is the author of a just released book, The Jolly Effect, that is illustrated by my grandson.
‘Twas twenty days before Christmas, when all through
the house everything was stirring, including a computer mouse. Even though nobody
was home!
Something jolly and magical is causing Christmas
decorations to spring to life. Which is nothing unusual for them until they
discover a decoration from another holiday. Suddenly, everything is in
question. What exactly is it that powers the decorations to awaken? Do they themselves
have this power? Can they even stay awake until Christmas? Will the crotchety old
nutcracker ruin the fun? Will Ugly Sweater ever stop singing her holiday opera?
This book is a whimsical journey into the heart,
soul and magic of that elusive holiday spirit. Get ready to share the Jolly
Effect.
The Jolly Effect is available in a print
edition https://amzn.to/33npmQ0 and an e-book edition https://amzn.to/3meWmBt.

About the Author:
When not putting up or taking down holiday
decorations with her son, Laura Befeler can be found dreaming up new book ideas
and working at one ad agency or another. Originally from Boulder, CO, she misses
the chance to wake up to a white Christmas. She now lives in a festive little
house in Southern California, which currently has decorations up from two
holidays ago. She has a nephew named Asher as well as a sister-in-law named
Kasey and hopes to visit Iowa again soon.
About the Illustrators:
Asher and Kasey Befeler were both born and raised in
Iowa, where Christmas is at least cold, if not white. Kasey works as a graphic
artist and Asher has been a natural artist for as long as his aunt can remember.
In addition to drawing, Asher loves fishing (and going on family trips to
Southern California). He is currently in the 8th grade.
