Synopsis

Santa has landed in a whole lot of trouble! Thanks to Twinklestar, that marzipan-loving but lightning-shy reindeer, Santa and his caravan have come crashing down in a storm just two weeks before Christmas.
Luckily he’s (literally!) dropped into a nice neighborhood.
But Santa’s not safe.
The ruthless Gerold Geronimus Goblynch plans to put an end to children’s wishes and turn the holiday season into his personal moneymaking scheme. Only Santa stands between him and his grinchlike tricks. With the help of kids Charlotte and Ben, Santa will have to face Goblynch and his Nutcracker goons if he’s ever to rescue Christmas!

Mi-a plăcut tare mult această cărticică pentru copii cu tematică de Crăciun! Ilustrațiile au fost și ele frumoase și în ton cu atmosfera cărții. Mi-a adus oarecum aminte de atmosfera din cărțile de Crăciun ale lui Matt Haig, și poate tocmai de asta m-am și bucurat atât de mult de ea. ^_^ Recomandată......more

Eine wunderschöne, magische Weihnachtsgeschichte! Dieses Buch hat mich komplett verzaubert – und ja, es hat mir sogar noch ein bisschen besser gefallen als Hinter verzauberten Fenstern!
