Christmas Crunches

Will the littlest camel survive the desert when left behind alone? Can a donkey save a village from a life-threatening disaster? Find out in these two tales full of festive animals and wonder!

Young Elsie is always getting distracted, forcing her family to shout “Come On, Little Camel!” But while she’s carrying some very important gifts through the desert, those distractions lead her into real danger.

Lola and her pet donkey Don Pedro had been chosen to lead the Christmas Eve procession for their village. But after an argument with her mother, Lola is left at home crying over The Forbidden Christmas while Don Pedro heads off alone.

Can the magic of Christmas dry Elsie and Lola’s tears? Find out in this collection of two crackingly Christmassy short stories.

Chip Colquhoun & Korky Paul's Fables & Fairy Tales: Inspiring stories from around the world, retold to inspire you.

These two short tales are great for reading aloud at bedtime with listeners aged 4+, and are also excellent for new independent readers aged 7+. Each features three beautifully detailed illustrations.
