This is the sixth adventure for intrepid young explorer Charlie Small and sees him facing an extraordinary range of foes and making some excellent if unusual new friends. He’s still a long way – and a long time – from home, but he does get to spend Christmas with someone very special indeed…
As ever, Charlie records everything that happens in his journals, complete with useful maps and sketches of the people and creatures he meets. It all makes for an adventure series in which readers never know what’s going to happen next but can’t wait to find out. Brilliant stuff!

About Nick Ward
Nick Ward was born in the late Jurassic period, and since then has written over sixty books for children, from picture books to young fiction. His book Don't Eat The Teacher has sold over a million copies and his alter-ego Charlie Small has written twelve volumes of unbelievable but completely true adventurous memoirs.
Brought up living above the family shop in a quiet market town, all Nick Ward ever wanted to do was write and illustrate books, and by hook and by crook, that's exactly what he has ended up doing. He has worked in design studios and converted school buildings, but now works from a little wooden studio (shed) at the bottom of his leafy garden. It's all rather lovely.
