Dear Santa

A child writes to Santa asking for something special for Christmas, and parcel after parcel arrives. Each page holds a brightly wrapped present with a sturdy card flap to lift, and behind every one is Santa's latest attempt. Will he find exactly the right thing in the end? A touch-and-feel surprise on the final page holds the answer.

Rod Campbell, creator of Dear Zoo, uses the same pattern that has made that book a nursery staple: bold, cheerful pictures, a simple repeating text and plenty of chances for small hands to do the opening. Now celebrating twenty years as a bestselling Christmas favourite, this chunky board book comes with a gold foiled cover and slips neatly into a stocking. A lovely first Christmas book for toddlers, and one they will ask for again every December.
