Gorgeous to read with the children leading up to the big day, this is a future festive classic.
Little ones will love this festive tale about a grumpy monster and his dastardly plan to stop Christmas.
A genuinely hilarious, sweet story that has all the makings of a Christmas classic. Our six-year-old was regularly in bits as we worked our way through the chapters, while the amazing illustrations brought the story to life perfectly. This was a book we genuinely couldn’t wait to get stuck into each night and we’re already looking forward to hearing what the Grumpus gets up to next.
