Matt Haig Pair Award-winning author Pack by Matt Haig (author) and Chris Mould (illustrator)

The essence of Christmassy magic. Believe in the impossible! When you think of Christmas, you probably think of mince pies and twinkly lights in trees. But lately, there’s something else that comes to mind: Matt Haig! This author’s festive novels are becoming part of our Christmas culture, just like the Queen’s speech and the David Walliams TV specials. Matt’s written three Christmas bestsellers, and here are the first two: a feast of merriment, magic and jolly good fun. If you imagine Harry Potter in Lapland with a hint of Oliver Twist, that’s more or less what you can expect. Elves, reindeer, toys and snow galore!
