A Fun Read

Step Father Christmas by L.D. Lapinski is a charming Christmas novel and suitable for ages eight years and over.

There are just twenty-five chapters making the book the perfect read, alongside an advent calendar in December.

The storyline is familiar but different. It is familiar because there are the usual Christmas activities – gingerbread houses, school fayres, the nativity etc – but different because not everyone has a step Father Christmas!

We see that life doesn’t always run smoothly and can be challenging, but goodness and kindness are the order of the day.

Step Father Christmas is a fun read and one that children can re-visit again each year.
