    From hilarious bestselling author, Katie Kirby, comes a brand-new Lottie Brooks story. This time it’s CHRISTMAS!!!

    Dear Santa,

    For Christmas this year, I would like:

    Two hundred KitKat chunkies (full-size not multipack)
    Baby Bella to stop shouting ‘BUM’ in public spaces
    A new brother who doesn’t fart on me and call it a ‘tasty air biscuit’
    Antoine or Daniel (I can’t decide!) to surprise me on Christmas Day with a grand romantic gesture
    Cash (lots of it!)
    A new diary (I’m really getting through them!)

    Lots of love,

    Lottie xxx

    PS. Please could you put a chocolate orange instead of a real orange in my stocking this year?

    Lottie Brooks LOVES Christmas – there’s presents, all the KitKat Chunkys you can eat AND no school for two weeks! But this year, Christmas might be a bit more chaotic than usual. The whole Brooks family are visiting for the festive break (along with some surprise visitors . . .), there’s a Secret Santa to organise, and the hammies won’t stop attacking Gavin, the Elf on the Shelf!

    Will Lottie survive the festivities intact or will she have to hide in the fort of shame until it’s all over?

    And when they learn that the fate of Christmas itself hangs in the balance, William and the Christmasaurus must work with the Winter Witch to protect it…

    Full of magic and music, humour and heart, and a friendship like no other, The Christmasaurus and the Winter Witch is the most enchanting Christmas read for the whole family by Tom Fletcher.
