Publisher's Synopsis
It's not easy being an orphan in Victorian London - but 12-year old Blanche can look after herself. Working as a carter with her old horse Rudy, she secretly dreams of giving a Christmas present to every girl and boy in the world. When she meets the irrepressible Rinki - a girl who likes to dream big - Blanche is swept away on a whirlwind festive adventure to the North Pole. Here, with the help of an excitable Christmas tree called Eggnog and a grumpy fairy named Carol, she sets about making her dreams of gift-giving come true. From Sibéal Pounder, bestselling author of the Witch Wars and Bad Mermaids series, this tale of friendship, sleigh rides and mince-pie feasts is the perfect book to curl up with this winter. Funny, feminist and with a huge heart, it's a gloriously Christmassy adventure that will delight even the biggest Grinch.
