Description
THE ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS FAMILY ADVENTURE.
“All I want for Christmas is for everyone to read this book.” A.F. Steadman, author of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief
“You might have heard the story of the nativity a thousand times, but I can guarantee you’ve NEVER heard what REALLY happened . . . So here’s the story of the Christmas we saved Christmas, and found out how much it really meant to us all.”
When Oscar and Molly rush outside to investigate a massive crash in the night, they're not expecting to find a dazed Angel Gabriel wandering around their grandparents' back garden. And they're certainly not expecting to find themselves in a race against time to save Christmas.
But if they don't track down a missing shepherd, wise man, donkey and the actual Mary and Joseph, who've all crash-landed in Chipping Bottom thanks to an angelic mishap, not only will Christmas cease to exist, but they will too. No presents, no crackers, no Christmas dinner - no Oscar and Molly!
Operation Nativity is on.
From the queen of heart and humour, Jenny Pearson, comes a magical Christmas adventure filled with festive delight, and the joy of celebrating Christmas with the ones you love.
