Hoglets' Christmas Magic by Lynette Creswell

Writer's picture: bobsandbooksbobsandbooks

Sometimes I get asked to read something for a review, and it catches me by surprise. This one certainly did that, and I couldn't be more delighted to share it with you. I am not one of those people who is obsessed with Christmas, buying presents in June and counting down days. I also don't have children. However, I certainly know a brilliant read, and if its that good to turn a Scrooge into an excitable Christmas spirit, its doing everything right.

It was on a starry night... It's Christmas Eve with the hoglets.


Prickles and Primrose are excited. That is until... As they decorate the Christmas tree they discover the star for the top has shattered. Not to be defeated - the brave hoglets set out into the woods to seek a substitute star but stumble across Santa instead.


What adventure will they encounter?


AND... what about the star?




Bobs and Books honest review (with a hint of tinsel):

This is a little bauble of Christmas magic. The illustrations bring the hoglets to life but the writing is superb. Perfect for all Santa fans and some other great characters met along the way. I am shouting about this to everyone I know with young children as this is such sweet storytelling with Christmas magic at the heart. A nice family scene. Prickles and Primrose are loving brother and sister. This definitely gave me that warm fuzzy feeling and brought back buckets of childhood nostalgia.


If I haven't convinced you, look how engrossed my sister Chloe is....


Out NOW.
