Description

Step into The Repair Shop in this magical Christmas children’s tale about a very special doll.

When little Susan is evacuated from wartime London and sent to live with a family in the countryside, she doesn’t hold much hope for the months ahead. Then, on Christmas morning, she is given a doll and Susan thinks this must be the best present she has ever had. Yet standing here in The Repair Shop, thinking back on her childhood, she realizes that in fact the greatest gift was the kindness bestowed upon her and her ability to remember it always as she holds her precious doll close to her.

Publisher Review

A heartwarming Christmas tale -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller * A delightful picture book aimed at the younger reader and full of Christmas sparkle. It is beautifully written and illustrated. [...] this would be a lovely present even if you are not a fan of The Repair Shop. * Ely Standard * If you're a fan of The Repair Shop, you'll love this book: all the expert repairers are there and easily recognisable - but even if you've never seen the programme, you'll still find that there's a story which is going to delight most young girls. * the Book Bag * A festive tale with a real-life twist! * Books that Help * A heart-warming Christmas tale about a little girl, her grandma and a precious doll. Loved that this is based on a true Repair Shop story. A festive tale with a real-life twist. * Toppsta Reviewer *
