I liked this more than the first volume, probably because of the addition of such positive and strong female characters. I'll probably reread this around Christmas every year now.

These books are lovely, ideal for youngsters and adults alike, full of heartfelt emotion and belly laughs. And wonderful characters: my favourite is Blitzen.

Perfect Christmas stories. Magical.
