Princess Eliza is a fairytale one-off – a princess who enjoys inventing and making useful gadgets. Her parents aren’t too keen on this, finding it a bit messy, and the queen would prefer her daughter to make friends, not machines. But Eliza comes into her own when, searching for a friend, she stumbles across Santa’s grotto. With Santa poorly, the elves are terribly behind on their Christmas tasks, and delighted with Eliza’s ingenious time-saving inventions which have the presents sorted, packed and labelled before you can say ‘Ho, ho, ho’. A fun story with a positive message, neatly told in a rhyming text and with warm, lively illustrations. Definitely worth adding to the Christmas list. ~ Andrea Reece
