Description

"You might think you know about Father Christmas. And I'm sure you do know some things. You probably know about the Toy Workshop and the reindeer. But the thing you probably don't know about is me..."

Best-selling author, Matt Haig is back with the third in his hilarious Christmas trilogy. Following from A Boy Called Christmas and The Girl Who Saved Christmas, this imaginative festive tale is set in the enchanted town of Elfhelm. Amelia Wishart, newly adopted human daughter of Father and Mary Christmas, is finding that life isn't quite as magical as she'd expected. Not only is it incredibly cold there, Elf School is tough when you fail all your toy-making tests and singing Christmas songs every day gets a bit tedious by July. But now the jealous Easter Bunny and his angry rabbit army are determined to stop Christmas and it's up to Amelia and her new family to save it before it's too late. Let the battle for Christmas begin!
