Publisher Review

on The Christmas Carrolls 'A Christmas book about kindness and cheer to make even Scrooge's heart melt' Dame Jacqueline Wilson "As warm and cosy as drinking hot chocolate in your favourite Christmas jumper. A festive feast of fun." Maz Evans, bestselling author of Who Let the Gods Out 'Fizzing with energy and festive cheer, The Christmas Carrolls is a heart-warming must-read for the Christmas period. Mel's writing sparkles like the star on top of a Christmas Tree.' Jennifer Bell, author of The Uncommoners trilogy "The Christmas Carrolls is just fabulous! I laughed solidly throughout the whole thing. It's gloriously festive, brilliantly funny and utterly endearing, too. Holly's inventions made me chuckle, as did Mr Bleurgh, while Holly and Archie's friendship was a joy to read. Also, Mel wrote one of the most beautiful descriptions of Christmas Eve I've ever read. The story is warm and wonderful and I loved it." Abi Elphinstone, author of The Unmapped Chronicles series
