This a cute christmassy story.
Content Warnings
Moderate: Grief, Death of parent
A charming story, just perfect for reading aloud at bedtime.
Haig captures perfectly the mix of humour and horror that appeals to small children (and adults who still like to think of themselves as small children). A great cast of characters and plenty of action to entertain, while sending a resounding Christmas cheer.
I have to confess to reading on ahead, and I can't wait to see what my six year old makes of some of the later events!
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for an advance copy.

Just finished this.
I’m in tears….and it’s a children’s book.
If you need some good old fashioned Christmas magic and the best story of Christmas and how Santa came to be you’ve ever read….please read this trilogy!
The film came out yesterday too! Matt Haig is a genius. I love every single thing he says. Just utterly magical.
