Praise for Jenny Pearson:

WINNER OF THE LAUGH OUT LOUD BOOK AWARD
SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA BOOK AWARD, WATERSTONES CHILDREN’S BOOK AWARD and the BRANFORD BOASE AWARD.

A funny and heart-warming story filled with festive delight, a nativity treasure hunt, and the joy of celebrating Christmas with the ones you love, from the bestselling queen of heart and humour, Jenny Pearson.

When Oscar and Molly rush outside to investigate a massive crash in the night, they’re not expecting to find a dazed Angel Gabriel wandering around their grandparents’ back garden. And they’re certainly not expecting to find themselves in a race against time to save Christmas.

But if they don’t track down a missing shepherd, wise man, donkey and the actual Mary and Joseph, who’ve all crash-landed in Chipping Bottom thanks to an angelic mishap, not only will Christmas cease to exist, but they will too. No presents, no crackers, no Christmas dinner – no Oscar and Molly!

Operation Nativity is on.
