The Big Advent Calendar Book: The Christmas Mice and the Princess Who Already Had It All

Children & Young Adult, Children's Books, Children's Books Age 6+

The Christmas mice can’t believe their eyes! They’ve never seen anything like this before: a gang of mice all dressed up in pink, complete with frills, sequins and glitter! It’s a delegation from the mouse-country Mousetania, a place that even seasoned travelling mouse Susanne never believed really existed. The Mousetanian princess already has everything imaginable, but she wants more and more, and sulks angrily if she’s not constantly being given new presents. Is this really a case for the Christmas mice? But after all, it is their job to step in whenever there is a Christmas crisis. The question is: how do you cure a spoilt princess? Wily Wilma already has an idea up her sleeve – because, as we all know, the best gifts have nothing to do with money, but instead come straight from the heart.

  

Press acclaim for previous books in the Christmas Mice series

  • “If you’re not familiar with this kind of advent book yet, you should make a grab for it now. Those who do know it will be doing that anyway.”
