'We teamed with children’s review site, Toppsta, to run a giveaway on their social media to encourage early reviews and received some wonderful responses:
There is a great deal of humour in the book, and the illustrations are fab. My son particularly liked the way each letter opened up differently. I loved the elves humour! Definitely for boys and girls Christmas stockings - would also be good for letter writing if your teach primary school children! – Parent
A lovely book - beautifully illustrated with quirky letters to read. We loved it. – Teacher
It's lots of fun and beautifully illustrated. Sure to brighten up any Christmas shelf. – Parent
This story is engaging and the envelopes and letters fold out making this book hugely appealing to children (and adult sized children). The quality of the paper is wonderful and I wasn’t worried about the envelopes or paper getting torn or crumpled. The illustrations are lovely with lots of expression and details that you can discuss to add further layers to the story. A lovely book for young children. - Parent
This is a fabulous story for little ones and families to enjoy together in the run up to Christmas. My children loved hearing this story, and I quite enjoyed reading it to them too! - Parent
Lovely book with lots of flaps and the such to open and read the letters. We love Emma Yarlett and this is a brilliant festive addition to the book pile – Parent
