Mikey and his family are grieving the loss of his gran.
She loved Christmas and always made such a fuss of the festive season but this year there’s a sadness to the house as they try to get excited for the celebrations ahead but it’s not quite the same without her.
When Santa decides to retire, Mikey enters his Gramps in to the competition to replace him. It’s not just about having a grey beard and dressing in a red suit, it’s about being a good person, kind to others and much more.
Mikey is convinced his Gramps has all these qualities and will win but with four magical tasks to complete in Christmasland, it’s a race against time as competition is fierce as they’re whisked away to the north pole for an adventure they’ll never forget.
There can only be one true winner who will take on the role of a lifetime, will it be Gramps?
Jasmine Richards and Priscilla Mante (under the pen name of Serena Holly) have written a fantastic festive read for all.
Mikey and Gramps are such a dynamic duo as they learn to trust and believe in each other.
What a fantastic cover and illustrations by Shahab Shamshirsaz bringing Mikey and his family to life throughout the book.
From sharing thoughts on grief to joyous family time on the run up to Christmas Day, it’s a must-read for all ages.
