From L. D. Lapinski, author of The Strangeworlds Travel Agency, comes a heartwarming and hilarious story about a girl who is convinced her new stepdad is actually Father Christmas. Structured like an advent calendar, this is the perfect story to enjoy one day at a time in the lead up to Christmas (with an extra special chapter for Christmas day!).

It's 25 days until Christmas . . .

And 10-year-old Harper gets a surprise when Mum announces she's bringing her new boyfriend Nick home for the holidays!

Nick seems nice enough. But why do strange Christmassy things happen whenever he's around? Like snow falling only in the family's garden? Or a reindeer suddenly appearing on the roof?!

Harper's convinced that Nick must be Father Christmas! And if her mum and older brother won't believe her, she'll just have to find a way to prove it herself . . .

Such a brilliant idea to have a chapter a night to enjoy in the run up to Christmas! Although we often had to have a sneaky listen to the next chapter too. A light-hearted story with a sprinkling of Christmas magic.
