Milly McCarthy and the Christmas Calamity - read a chapter here!

We're making a list, but we don't need to check it twice because we know Milly McCarthy is coming to town...

Author Leona Forde and Illustrator Karen Hart have teamed up again to give us the gift of Milly McCarthy and the Christmas Calamity - read a full chapter here!

Leona and Karen will be on the next episode of We Love Books Monday, 9 December!

Here's the story...

Milly's class are getting ready for the Christmas talent show and our hero is the perfect choice as MC (at least she thinks so). And, when she plans her super special festive surprise, there's only one way it's going to play out - and we are not talking about a silent night...
