A high-energy, brilliantly silly, fully illustrated festive
adventure story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented
artist Anita Mangan.
"Nine- to 12-year-olds will love this funny, fast-paced
story" Good Housekeeping Christmas Gift Guide
It's Christmas Eve and one of Santa's reindeers, Dave, is FED
UP. He's stuck behind boastful Rudolph again and a fart-in-the-face
is the LAST STRAW.
In the commotion, Santa crash lands on the roof of nine-year-old
Holly's home causing an almighty Christmas lights explosion
that blasts the reindeers to far-flung corners of the Earth.
It's up to Dave and Holly to fly round the world to rescue
all the reindeers.
Can Holly and Dave get all the reindeers back to Santa
to SAVE CHRISTMAS?
This funniest festive adventure is a must-read spin on The
Night Before Christmas
From the bestselling creators of The Fart That Changed the
World and The Day I Fell Down the Toilet
A laugh out loud celebration of the magic of Christmas
Praise for The Great Christmas Reindeer:
"Filled with humour [...] genuinely funny situations which
younger readers will delight in as they root for the story's hero
and heroine as they battle to save Christmas ... Wonderfully
illustrated by [Stephen's] sister, Anita, making this a very appealing
choice for readers in KS2 ... this would also make
a wonderful shared bedtime read, with adults enjoying much of the
humour too" Jacqui Sydney, book blogger
"From the very first page, readers will laugh out loud at
this off-the-wall tale of Santa's newest reindeer, Dave, and the
trouble he (unintentionally) causes when Rudolph is boastful one
too many times ... The Great Reindeer Rescue is one hilarious event
after another - just the thing for middle grade readers this December!"
Kate Heap, book blogger

read again and again by all three generations" Parent
