Her story begins many, many years ago when her brother was torn away from her as a child. Raised alone by a witch of the woods, Kristtorn's powers of magic grew, as did her temper. Determined to find her long lost twin, she set out on a perilous journey across oceans to find him. But what she found instead was a deep-seated fear of her powers and a confrontation that would leave the fate of Christmas hanging in the balance.
From award-winning producer and actress Aubrey Plaza and her creative partner Dan Murphy comes a holiday storyunlike any told before. With all the richness of classic folklore, they've woven a tale of bravery, love and magic. Whatever you thought you knew about Christmas…think again.
Series Overview: There is a follow-up story about Kristtörn, the Christmas Witch, in Fall 2022.

Series Overview: There is a follow-up story about Kristtörn, the Christmas Witch, in Fall 2022.
EMPOWERING MESSAGE: Kristtörn is the anti-heroine for the modern reader. Upcoming generations are learning that the whole range of emotions are healthy, and modern culture is finally celebrating the power of female rage. Kristtörn discovers the value in relying on herself, and not changing who she is because the world isn't ready for her yet. Gone are the days of telling young girls they need to smile more!
A CLASSIC IN THE MAKING: We see this as a book families can create new Christmas traditions around, pulling it out year after year to rediscover the legend of the Christmas Witch. With lyrical writing and expansive, folklore-ish art, it begs to be read again and again, and will feel as fresh years down the line as it will on the very first read.
BOOK AS OBJET D'ART: Coming in at 56 pages with spread after spread of sumptuous art by Julia Iredale, this is the Christmas book that can sit on a coffee table as easily as it can be pulled out to be read by the whole family in front of the fire. Parents and kids alike will want to lose themselves in the illustrations.
