This looks like such a gorgeous book, the illustrations look so stylish. A great idea behind the story too that will be useful for so many. #readwithme
Itβs a really important story for so many children.
Awww kind of sad but also beautiful. I’d love to take a look at this book.

Mia is only sad at the very beginning of the story. Her adventure helps her to understand that she’s not alone in her situation.
This is such a beautiful book! #readwithme
Gorgeous isn’t it, we love Karl James Mountford’s illustrations π
What a lovely seasonal book. And so true that not everyone is with their loved ones at Christmas #readwithme
It’s especially hard for children to understand if a parent has to be away at a special time and we love the way that Last Stop On The Reindeer Express can help them to understand that they’re not alone π
This sounds absolutely magical, a beautiful festive story.
It is, the story adds magic to Mia’s sadness and leads her to understand that she’s not the only child missing a loved one at Christmas.
What a wonderful sounding book and as you say perfect for a child missing someone close at Christmas #TriedTested
It’s lovely to find a book that acknowledges that Christmas can be difficult for children who are away from parents at Christmas time.
This looks and sounds like a beautiful story. One for my little nephews I think!
It is beautiful and very different to any other Christmas story we’ve read.
I do love a book with great illustrations as well as a lovely message too. I can see it being a Christmas favourite. Christmas smell and satchel carrying squirrels. What’s not to love? #MMBC
The squirrel is very very cute, it’s just one of the little details in the illustrations that makes the story so magical π
I really want to get this one for my lot! The front cover alone looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing with #readwithme
The front cover is a beautiful cut out too, it’s really perfect for a Christmas present π
What a magical book. I love the flap type books as they make the story just that little more exciting. I am sure this lovely story will be a great comfort for little ones who will be missing a parent at Christmas π
Thanks so much for sharing with #MMBC. Hope to see you Monday x
The flaps are perfectly integrated into the illustrations and give intriguing little peeks into the next page of the story π
We know several military families and a parent is often away, this would make a great Christmas present for the children in these families.
Hi Catherine, as an adult it makes me sad that anyone has to spend Christmas apart from their loved ones, but that’s life and it happens. This book would be great comfort to a child who is apart from a loved one at this family orientated time of year. I love the description ‘smells of Christmas’, There can’t be many people who don’t have a smell that reminds them of Christmas.
Thank you for linking up with the #MMBC.

It is sad that some children can’t spend Christmas with a parent and we know military families where this can be the case, a book like this can help younger children realise that they’re not alone in this situation.
‘Smells of Christmas’ conjures up all sorts of warm, wonderful aromas doesn’t it π
It is such a magical book! Beautiful!!
Gorgeous isn’t it! It’s great that children who will be away from a parent over Christmas have a story that they can relate to.
Will be very useful for so many π #readwithme
Often families can’t be together over Christmas for various reasons and this book can help children realise that they’re not alone in this situation.
