Curl up with this cosy story and rediscover Graham Oakley's classic
series. After hopeless attempts to raise money for the Christmas
party, Arthur, Humphrey and Sampson decide to raise the mice's
spirits by dressing up as Father Christmas and his reindeer. Little
do they know that their actions will lead to the capture of a
burglar and a reward hamper filled with all a mouse could ever
dream of!
By the author of Once Upon a Unicorn Horn, shortlisted for the 2020
Waterstones Children's Book Prize. The second title in a new series
about how magical creatures came to have their gifts. Do you know
how dragons got their fire? It all began once upon a magic kingdom,
when a fearsome, terrifying dragon stalked the land. He was so mean
he ate kittens for breakfast, he was so scary he made children
scream, and he was so evil that he blew huge storms out of his
jaws, which is why it was always so cold. Or so the stories said.
When two children called Freya and Sylas met the dragon, they found
something very different indeed...
