"I absolutely ADORED it! A really funny, clever, brilliant play on all the Christmas tropes. It just has to be made into a movie!" – Emma Carroll

"Very sparkly storytelling and a lovely portrayal of friendship" – Hilary McKay

"Joyful and hilarious. I loved every moment of it" – Stephanie Burgis

What if somewhere along the way we've all got the Santa story a bit wrong...? Join Blanche Claus as she aims to deliver a Christmas gift to every child on Earth. With help from her best friend Rinki and an aspiring chef called Santa, it's a funny festive sleigh ride you'll never forget!

From Sibéal Pounder, bestselling author of the Witch Wars and Bad Mermaids series, this tale of friendship and mince-pie feasts is the perfect book to curl up with this winter. Funny, feminist and with a huge heart, it's a gloriously Christmassy adventure that will delight even the biggest Grinch.
