The Christmas Star - And Other Festive Stories

A collection of three wonderfully festive stories from Eva Ibbotson, the bestselling author of Journey to the River Sea . With a beautiful cover by Joe Wilson and inside illustrations, The Christmas Star is a wonderful gift to treasure at Christmas and all year round. In the first story, Vicky and the Christmas Angel , a young Viennese girl discovers, to her horror, who really brings the children''s presents at Christmas. In The Christmas Star a family encounters a fortune teller at the local Christmas market who changes their lives. The Great Carp Ferdinand is a story about a hero with a difference as it follows the impact that Ferdinand - the carp intended for the Mannhaus family''s Christmas dinner - has on the household in the lead-up to Christmas.
