Count down to Christmas with this enchanting, advent calendar-style book. Lift the flap, peek inside the window, and discover what chapter to read tonight, all the way up to Christmas!
A magical story set in the snowy North Pole that follows Santa as he prepares for his big flight before Christmas! It's time to round up the reindeer, wrap the presents, rally the elves and whizz about on the snowmobile. Perfect for gifting to loved ones, the book's intricately-foiled front cover functions like an advent calendar, with tiny dated doors that open to reveal what page number the next chapter in the story is on.
Each page is filled with humorous adventures and bright, colourful illustrations, introducing children to a cast of Christmas characters and conventions, and creating a joyful keepsake that can be reused for years to come. Ho-ho-happy reading!
