The Christmas Carrolls

by Mel Taylor-Bessent, illustrated by Selom Sunu - £7.99  HarperCollins Publishers (2021)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780755503629 | ISBN 10: 0755503627

Wish it could be Christmas every day? Well, for nine-year-old Holly Carroll and her family, it is!
 
Living her merriest life in a house with year-round fairy lights and Christmas trees, a carol-singing toilet and a diva donkey who thinks he's a reindeer, home-schooled Holly tries to spread cheer wherever she goes.
 
But when she goes to a new school with a singing Santa backpack and first day Christmas cards (during a heatwave in September!), she realises not everyone shares her enthusiasm for spreading cheer. In fact, when the neighbours try to remove the Carrolls from the street and Holly discovers a group of children that may not get a Christmas at all, her snowglobe world begins to crack. Is the world's most Christmassy girl about to lose her Christmas spirit?
 
The Christmas Carrolls is a heartwarming, hilarious and inclusive tale about the power of spreading cheer, the magic of friendship and what really matters at this most wonderful time of the year.
 
Recommended for readers aged 8-12
