A gorgeously heartwarming festive picture book celebrating the importance of community

It's three days until Christmas and Holly is fizzy with excitement! Her tree is a sparkle-fest, she's been to the Mistletoe Street Christmas Market and - best of all - she's met Father Christmas himself!

But when Holly notices that there's one house on her street which isn't lit up, she's determined to include its elderly resident, Ivy, in the Christmas fun. And when a power cut strikes on Christmas Eve, will anyone remember Ivy? And can Holly lead her neighbours to bring joy to the whole of Mistletoe Street?

A heartwarming and festive tale from new talent Kate Thompson and brought to life by Natelle Quek. This truly special book is perfect for sharing with the whole family at Christmas time.

About the authors

Kate Thompson

Kate Thompson is one of the most exciting authors writing for young people today. A born storyteller, her work is highly original and she is thought provoking in her ideas. She has travelled widely in the USA and India and studied law in London. After living in County Clare, she moved to Kinvara in County Galway and there, she discovered her passion for playing the fiddle. She is now an accomplished player and also has a great interest in restoring instruments. Kate is the only author to win the Children's Books Ireland Bisto Book of the Year award four times - in 2002 for The Beguilers, in 2003 for The Alchemist's Apprentice, in 2004 for Annan Water and in 2006 for The New Policeman. The New Policeman also won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize 2005, the Whitbread Book Award Children's category 2005, the Children's Book of the Year in the Irish Book Awards in March 2006 and has been longlisted for the Carnegie Medal. In 2008 Kate was again shortlisted for the Children's Books Ireland Bisto Award for her book, The Last of the High Kings, a beautiful and haunting story that delves deep into the magic of Irish myth and folklore.
