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“Great addition to the family Christmas library. Will be cheerfully read again and again by all three generations”Parent review“A perfect book for the run to Christmas and my 8 year old is very much enjoying the story so far. Plenty of humour and some lovely illustrations too!”Parent review“Fun, engaging and full of Christmas spirit”Parent review
