This was such a sweet and warm winter story! The illustrations are absolutely stunning, especially the big landscapes and wide shots. It definitely captures the cold, grey of winter alongside the glowing Christmas lights and warm holiday spirit. This is a little bit of a longer book, but it is engaging the whole way through. I love the Little Ghost Quilt and I hope there are even more books in this series!

My thanks for the ARC goes to NetGalley and Tundra Book Group. I'm voluntarily leaving a review.
THE LITTLE GHOST QUILT'S WINTER SURPRISE is a feel-good Christmas book with our favorite Little Ghost.
This is a darling sequel to *The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt* all about friendship and love. The illustrations are gorgeous!
If you have a quilting friend, this book will be a hit.
I think kids are going to love this story and the illustrations. Little Ghost is a charming character, and I hope to see more spirited books.
Happy reading!

Absolutely adorable and endearing! This book is so cozy and it highlights important themes. The illustrations in this book are so beautiful. The textures and color scheme truly add a lot to the story.

Cutie little picture book about a ghost who is made of quilt, while his friends are made of sheet. This gives the ghost quilt an edge in the winter months and he’s able to see more of the comfort and happiness of the Christmas season. As with any good children’s book, this book brings out a triumphant struggle and a cozy sense of community.

Okay from someone who wears ghost book related shirts all year round this book just warms my heart. Having ghosts that exist in such a lovely way outside spooky season and using ghost-related book puns is the way to this readers’ heart. This is a lovely book and the art is fantastic. I hope readers enjoy it as much as I did.
Thank you to Tundra Book Group and Netgalley for allowing me to read an advance copy of this title.

"When you're a quilt instead of a sheet, being a ghost is hard! But it does mean you can float around in cold weather...an adorable picture book about a ghost who wants to share the magic of the season with his chilly sheet friends.
The little ghost quilt loves being out in the cold. For once, he doesn't overheat, and he likes how the snowflakes make his patches look polka-dotted. His friends, who are sheets, get too cold in the winter weather and have to stay inside, but the little ghost quilt doesn't mind. He enjoys slowly drifting along on his own.
On one of his frosty flights, he sees something happening in the town. People are putting up warm, twinkling lights, and there's a fun festive feeling everywhere - like Halloween, his favorite season, but with snowmen and wreaths and candles in windows instead of pumpkins. He is filled with excitement and happiness looking at all the beautiful decorations and joyous people, yet he can't help but feel sad that his friends can't be there.
But then, after almost getting caught in a blizzard, the little ghost quilt is struck by inspiration..."
I just love the little ghost quilt. His way of sharing the holiday spirit with his friends who are more suited to summer was a sheer delight to read.
A delightful sequel wherein our ghostly friend learns about Christmas and shares the spirit of the season with his friends. The ghost house was delightfully reminiscent of Charles Addams.

I received an electronic ARC from Tundra Book Group through NetGalley.
Little Ghost Quilt is back for another adventure. Readers see that winter has arrived and the other ghosts can't play outside without freezing. Little Ghost can and does have some marvelous adventures. When he sees sparkly lights in the distance, he sets out to discover the source. The human town is celebrating Christmas with the usual decorations. I love how Little Ghost problem solves to bring this beauty to his friends. The illustrations capture the adventure and the teamwork to create their own decorations at the end. I wish we had seen other winter holidays included but the story works with the focus on Christmas decorations. A sweet story of joy and problem solving to include friends.

My daughter and I had so much fun reading The Little Ghost Quilt’s Winter Surprise! We’re big fans of both Halloween-themed stories and cozy winter/Christmas books, so this delightful mix was right up our alley. From the very first page, we were both drawn in by the charming illustrations—colorful, whimsical, and full of seasonal magic. I can only imagine how lovely they’ll look in print!
The cover immediately caught my eye, and I knew it was something my daughter would love—and I was right. It’s sweet, gentle, and imaginative. As a family with deep quilting roots, the storyline felt extra special. The idea of a little ghost quilt discovering winter is such a unique and heartwarming twist, and it added a nice touch of nostalgia and creativity for me as a parent.
I received access to this book as an eARC via NetGalley, and I’m so grateful I did. Thank you Tundra Books! This will definitely be a title we return to each holiday season. Highly recommended for families who love heartwarming stories with a touch of seasonal whimsy and beautiful artwork!

👻❄️ Cutest ghost story ever! ❄️👻
This adorable children’s book follows a little ghost made of quilt instead of a sheet and because of that, he gets to explore the snowy world outside when his family can not.
As he travels through magical Christmas towns and snowy landscapes, he discovers the joy of the holiday season in a way the others never have. At first, he feels left out… but in the end, he finds a beautiful way to bring the Christmas spirit back home to share with his family.
This story is such a clever twist on a holiday tale. I absolutely loved it.
🎄👻 10/10 would recommend for wintertime reading with little ones!
My kids have already decided we’re buying a hard copy when it releases to add to our Christmas book collection. We wrap and read one each night as part of our 25 days of Bookmas tradition. 📚🎄

This was a very fun read! I love the cozy vibes that emanated from ghost quilt trying to bring the joy of Christmas to his spooky little friends. I would highly recommend this read for anyone looking for a fun and quick story to share with the kids.

My kid loved the last book, and this was no exception. The art is just stunning. The story is sweet and heartwarming, perfect for Christmas. I can't wait to read this again around the holidays.

When you're a quilt instead of a sheet, being a ghost is hard! But it does mean you can float around in cold weather . . . an adorable picture book about a ghost who wants to share the magic of the season with his chilly sheet friends.

Little Ghost Quilt strikes again on more adventures! I agree with a few other people who said this gives "Nightmare Before Xmas" vibes without being scary, and I love that! Can't wait to make my little guy his own ghost quilt so he can have a little stuffed animal version of the main character. Would recommend!

What a beautiful follow up to the first book! The illustrations are even more beautiful, with the addition of Christmas colors and cheer. The story is full of love and hope, and readers will gain a sense of nostalgia as they think of the first time they had their own Christmas tree. I will absolutely recommend this to readers- the same sense of being yourself, staying true to who you are, and being brave to try something new will resonate with everyone who loved the first book.

Another simply adorable story about the little ghost who was a quilt. It has the same charming illustration style with so many details in the artwork. It’s such a sweet story about making others happy and bringing some beauty to the world.
I love the crossover of spooky-cute ghosts and wintery holiday fun, Christmas trees, and decor. The little ghost is such a lovable character, I hope there will be more in this series, it will be a wonderful addition to my little free library!
Thank you again, Riel Nason, Penguin Random House, and Net Galley for this sweet story.

The Little Ghost Quilt's Winter Surprise is an adorable sequel to "The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt." In the story, Little Ghost is able to fly around in the snow, enjoying the elements of the winter, but he misses his friends. Since they're all sheets, they would get too cold and might freeze outside! While thinking of ways to enjoy the change in season with his friends, the little ghost quilt happens upon a human celebration with lights and trees! He decides to find a way to bring the celebration to his friends!
Though I will always have a soft spot for the original Little Ghost Quilt story, this was a fun, seasonal addition to the lore. The pictures and the story are great for talking to kids about how differences can bring people together, especially during times of celebration.

Thank you to Netgalley and Tundra Books for a copy of this sweet book in exchange for an honest review!
This story about the little ghost quilt and his winter surprise was absolutely adorable. This children's story has the cutest illustration of the adorable ghost quilt and his winter/holiday adventures. I also loved the story, it illustrated themes of friendship, creativity, belonging and adventure while also having some light hearted spooky themes. This is a perfect holiday story for beloved children and adults alike - I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!
Illustrations and Story line are both 5 stars for me!

OOPS-de-loop! Please let me be a little ghost made of quilts in my next life.
For lovers of all things cute and spooky, this book is must. I absolutely loved this story, from the heartwarming tale of sharing joy with one’s friends to the cozy yet spooky illustrations. I cannot wait for my little one to be old enough for these books. I love how they touch on being different and embracing oneself. This one specifically also touches on sharing, or rather making your own, traditions with those close to you which really captures the holiday spirit for me.
Thank you NetGalley for an ARC of this book.

The Little Ghost Quilt's Winter Surprise, was a cute story about connection and the importance of friendship. His loneliness inspires him to head and and find something to bring his friends to him in celebration. It was a sweet story and the illustrations were cute.

The illustrations in this book are so beautiful. It fits the story perfectly - with a darker tone for the ghosts but also warm and inviting for the holidays. It also felt nostalgic and homey in the best possible way.
The story is super cute about friendship and using what you have to make something beautiful. I think fans of the original book will really love this Christmas version but anyone can read this and feel the holiday spirit.
