So this book, aptly titled A Boy Called Christmas by Matt Haig, caught my attention because I was looking for a new book this holiday season to share with my son. In all honestly, I didn't realize this was an audio book until after it arrived (my fault, for not reading the description). That being said, I was a little nervous that the audio book would not keep my seven year old's attention. Luckily, this book grabbed our imagination from the start so my son "tuning out" was a non-issue.
I was pleased to discover a new Christmas book that wasn't cheesy or a subtle rehashing of the usual Christmas stories. In a nutshell, A Boy Called Christmas tells the tale of a boy named Nicholas (duh!) who faces many hardships during his childhood. Magic elements ensue (reindeer! trolls! pixies!) and Nicholas becomes a hero.
Will your child enjoy this book? YES! But even better parents, YOU will too. Add this one to your reading shelf for next Christmas.

exchange for an honest review. This review is entirely based on my
opinion.
