Tinsel by Sibéal Pounder

How did the world come to believe Santa Claus is a man? It’s all just a big misunderstanding! This tale of friendship, sleigh rides and two formidable girls is THE Christmas book of the year - a gloriously funny, festive adventure that will delight even the biggest Grinch.

Join Blanche Claus and her best friend Rinki for a funny festive sleigh ride you'll never forget!

From Sibéal Pounder, bestselling author of the Witch Wars and Bad Mermaids series, this tale of friendship and mince-pie feasts is the perfect book to curl up with this winter. Funny, feminist and with a huge heart.

What a cute story! I loved all the little nods and winks to different parts of the Santa legend. The story itself is genius, really clever. 

The characters are fantastic; I can't pick a favourite, but it might be Carol, or Carol, or Rudy...no, I really can't. I loved the descriptions, too. Rinki's clothes are wonderful. I love the descriptions, too, so colourful and detailed. 

I love the illustrations, they really add to the whole story. This is going to be a great seller this Christmas, kids will really enjoy it. And I think a few letters will be signed to Blanche instead of Santa!
