It was late Christmas Eve and Santa was making his way from house to house. That was until Cookie the Puppy heard a noise outside and thought it was her owner dressed in red. All excited she had managed to open the door and jumped up and knocked Santa over and was now covering him in kisses.

She had also made the Reindeer’s run away in fright. Santa was sad, what was he going to do? He had a sack full of presents but no way of getting to all the boys and girls. Monty offered to help, him and his friends. But how can a group of dogs pull Santa’s sleigh all over the world, they can hardly fly, or can they?

Monty and Friends Save Christmas is an amazing, beautifully written book featuring the lovable Monty. The story is told in a rhyme and with the full page bright, colourful illustrations this book is a must-read for Christmas, especially as it features the big man himself, yes Santa.

I just adored this book, and it’s not very often that I really gush over a book, especially a children’s book, but this one is truly worth it. It was so enjoyable from the first page to the last and I can see it becoming a firm favourite with young children, especially at this time of year.

If you only buy one bedtime story to read on Christmas Eve to your little ones, make sure it is Monty and Friends Save Christmas as it is absolutely amazing and festive too, plus, it has so much Christmas Spirit within the pages, alongside the wonderful story.
