THE GIRL WHO SAVED CHRISTMAS
MATT HAIG
If somewhere in the afterlife Roald Dahl met Charles Dickens and they cooked up a new Christmas tale, it couldnt have much on this fleet, verbally rambunctious, heart-stealing follow-up to A Boy Called Christmas. The New York Times Amelia Wishart was the first child ever to receive a Christmas present. It was her Christmas spirit that gave Santa the extra boost of magic he needed to make his first trip around the world. But now Amelia is in trouble. When her mother falls ill, she is sent to the workhouse to toil under cruel Mr. Creeper. For a whole year, Amelia scrubs the floors and eats watery gruel, without a whiff of kindness to keep her going.
