The Very Last Christmas Present
Join one small pup on a BIG Christmas adventure!
A heartwarming Christmas adventure from the best-loved author of Oscar’s Lion
Join one small pup on a BIG Christmas adventure!
Father Christmas has a problem. He’s back from his journey around the world on Christmas Eve, but he’s forgotten to deliver one of the presents! The reindeers are too exhausted for another journey, so there’s only one option. Father Christmas’s loyal – but very junior – dog, Kado, will have to step up to pull the sleigh and make sure no child wakes up without their present on Christmas morning.
Through continents and past polar bears, into oceans and over African plains, Kado and Father Christmas take a magical journey to deliver the forgotten present. But the BIGGEST surprise of all is what’s inside the wrapping…
A magical, heartwarming and unforgettable story, destined to be a modern Christmas classic.

About the Author
Adam Baron is the author of five successful novels and has, in his time, been an actor, comedian, journalist and press officer at Channel 4 television (as well as things he’s too embarrassed to mention). He now runs the widely respected MA in Creative Writing at Kingston University London. Adam lives in Greenwich, South London, with his wife and three young children. He wrote Boy Underwater (his first novel aimed at younger readers) because they told him to. While still in the flush of youth he knows what his final words are going to be: ‘clear the table’. Benji Davies was born and raised in Peterborough. After studying animation at university he spread his creative wings, working on a variety of illustration and animation projects. His picture books have won numerous awards, including Oscar's First Book Prize, an AOI World Illustration Prize and the Sainsbury's Children's Book Prize. He lives and works in London with his wife.
