'A heart-warming read, it captures the magic of not only Christmas but childhood too. Beautifully presented in a hardback with gold foiling, it’s the kind of book that will stand the test of time, look good on the bookshelf and be passed down from generation to generation.'
The Independent
Staff Picks – <i>‘A lovely, cosy story, perfectly matched by soft pastel and coloured-pencil illustrations, toys and Noah too exceedingly huggable.’</i>
LoveReading
It is Christmas Eve and Noah’s toy elephant, Fanfan, has gone missing! Little does he know that Fanfan has crept out of the house to join other soft toys on their annual Christmas journey: to see Santa Claus!
Just in case letters don’t reach Santa, toys all around the world make this trip so they can tell Santa what their child wants most of all. (After all, who knows a child better than their best-loved toy?)
Will Fanfan return in time for Christmas morning? And will Noah get the present that he so longs for?
Perfect to curl up with at bedtime, this sweet and magical tale is illustrated with warm and magical artwork by the incredibly talented Genevieve Godbout, the artist behind Apple Cake.
