The Christmas Mystery. Jostein Gaarder
|
|
An ideal pre Christmas read.
Covering 24 fairly short chapters,one to be read each day of Advent,this tells the story of a missing child,but also the story of a young boy who finds an old Advent calender and the past and present interweave to make fascinating reading.
I enjoyed it so much this time last year that I have bought a copy for each of my daughters as a "grown-up" Advent Calendar.
Do any of you know it?

Thanks Nannieconnie, I've ordered it from the Library, as they have a large print version. So much easier to read than looking for glasses.

Brill. I'm "proper poorly" at the moment, with a chest infection-and feeling really sorry for myself. Think I'll send my daughter into town for it, then I can read, and cough at the same time!!!!!!!
