Meerkat Christmas

Product Information

Rather like Pick a Pine Tree, Meerkat Christmas is a seasonal picture book to be gifted, read, shared and treasured.

Although his ‘ mum and dad are busy cleaning the burrow’ while his ‘brothers and sisters are busy putting up Christmas decorations‘, Sunny frets. You can find these Meerkats dressed in our National sports wear, even our Emergency Services are here some of the favourite TV characters like Harry Potter. We all had lots fun talking who had or had not seen meerkats yet (many in my neighbourhood have gone to Australia Zoo), where meerkats live, why does EVERYONE love them so much and imagining other funny antics they might get up to. Emily Gravett’s witty and heartwarming celebration of festive fun and family love shows that Christmas can be whatever you want it to be. So off he heads to find the perfect Christmas elsewhere, before realizing that maybe Christmas isn’t all about the trimmings.Feel free to message if you have any questions/requests and either me, my sister Liz, or our friend Anne, will be happy to help! With over 1,000 Christmas Tree Decorations to choose from you'll be spoilt for choice, whether you're looking for something classy, unique, novelty or fun!

In 2008 Emily was awarded the rare honour of a second CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal for LITTLE MOUSE'S BIG BOOK OF FEARS. Really pleased with it, I have been looking for a meerkat one for my son for a while, so happy that i found this, he will be over the moon. Lots of Gift Ideas and Party Favours for events such as a Wedding, Hen Party, Christmas, Halloween, Birthday and more! Disclaimer: All product copy was written during the great COVID lockdown of 2020, if it sounds like we needed to get out more, it’s because we did.Her first picture book WOLVES was published in August 2005 to great acclaim, winning the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal and a clutch of other awards it marked the beginning of a stellar career creating extraordinary books for children. Sunny’s read all about Christmas, that the perfect Christmas must hold snow that is ‘ deep and crisp‘ alongside a ‘ tastefully decorated tree’. With lots of lift-the-flaps, this adorable book will be a delight for fans of the Jolly Christmas Postman. Emily Gravett’s Meerkat Christmas sees Sandy the meerkat travel to the seaside and Antarctic to find the perfect snowy Christmas, only to learn that being with his family in the Kalahari, where cactuses are decorated with insects and snakes, is perfect after all. Seriously, I’m always so in awe of creators who can do both the text and the illustrations – for someone who yearns to have even a smidgin of creativity it seems a little unfair -haha!

Sunny wants a white Christmas, with a decorated tree, carols and sprouts for dinner… none of which he can see at home in the Kalahari desert. Each book is unique and different from the last – and each features endearing, beautifully drawn characters that touch the heart and tickle the funny bone. If you’ve been on the lookout for a Christmas card like no other then you have found the one right here.They totally loved the reveal of the pups pyramid-ing their way to form a Christmas Tree and there was much laughter all round. Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example.

It seems as though Robin’s is full of worms and rain, while the snowy Antarctic puts a chill in Sunny’s plans. I was at my last school for 4 years and we had ********* book fairs every term – and every term, I was disappointed by the narrow range of books. It’s such great fun to be able to open up the cards Sunny sends home to his family, each filled with laugh-out-loud humour.Yesterday a parent came over to tell me how impressed she was by the book fair and that you did a fabulous job of selling the books to the children first.
