The Lovereading comment:
Daisy starts to think about Christmas in september; ideas for presents that friends and family will give, what to ask Santa for, even being told that she’s in the school Christmas play, but can you guess what part? The trouble with Daisy is she finds the idea of Christmas so exciting that everything else goes out the window. Join her on her Christmassy adventures and you can enjoy other Daisy adventures too by clicking here
Synopsis
Daisy and the Trouble with Christmas by Kes GrayChristmas: a time of peace, when all is calm? Not if you're Daisy, who has been extremely excited about Christmas since September. And when Daisy is excited, trouble will surely follow! Daisy loves the carols, the sparkly lights, the crackers, the snowmen and especially the chance to be in the school Christmas play. But, as ever with Daisy, things don't go quite according to plan and when the Baby Jesus dolly's head wobbles and falls off, total Christmas chaos ensues.
