It was the little girl's favorite night because she and her family were going on The Great PJ Ride, a tradition they followed every Christmas. She likes it because she gets to stay up late to see all the lights and decorations in the neighborhood. They wear their PJs, bring lots of snacks, and listen to their favorite Christmas music. The little girl begins by wearing her favorite holiday pajamas which have Christmas unicorns on them. Her brother is wearing pajamas with a dinosaur in a Santa hat and they carry their favorite Christmas treats; cookies, hot chocolate, candy canes, and popcorn. The little girl looks outside and sees the stars and knows it is time for them to get going. They all pile into the car and check out the Christmas light displays as they take a ride along all the streets in town. Do they have a Great PJ Ride? How is their experience of the Christmas magic as they ride through town and see the lights and decorations?
The Great PJ Ride: A Christmas Tradition by Cheryl Gillis is a charming story that captures the essence of the Christmas season beautifully.
