A high-energy, brilliantly silly, fully illustrated
festive adventure story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and
talented artist Anita Mangan.
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

World and Escape the Rooms
