Booksellers from SIBA, NAIBA, GLIBA and CALIBA have all voted, and chosen a design based on The Old Sleigh by Jarrett Pumphrey and Jerome Pumphrey and published by Norton Young Readers to be the cover illustration of the 2025 Winter Gift Catalog.

The Pumphrey Brothers are Caldecott honorees whose books often celebrate rural life. They have also illustrated previous SIBA bookseller favorites such as The Last Stand by Atwan Eady, and There Was a Party for Langston by Jason Reynolds. The Old Sleigh is a companion to their earlier books, The Old Truck and The Old Boat.
