On the Shelf

When Natalie receives an ornament for her birthday, she pushes the rest of her collection aside to make room for the new. Upset at losing their space, the old ornaments argue and jostle, leading to a catastrophe!

Join the ornaments on the shelf in this fun, rhyming story as they discover the importance of accepting others and welcoming those who are new.
