Summary
A Kiwi Christmas Carol: A Dickensian Delight Down Under
“What a whole lot of hoo-ha, this ‘let’s all be merry’ - the dinners, the pressies and fuss! A load of old CODSWOLLOP!” hollered old Jerry. “But leave early then - if you must!”
Miserly old Jerry from the Kai Corner Dairy is the New Zealand equivalent of Scrooge, in this Kiwi twist on Dickens’ classic Christmas tale. Children will love spotting the odd kiwi icon in Webb’s humorous illustrations.
