Elliot lives with his parents on their reindeer farm at the edge of the forest. This Christmas, Elliot’s cousin Flora is coming to visit, and he can’t wait for all the adventures they’re going to have!

But as soon as Flora arrives, strange things begin to happen. Mysterious footprints appear in the snow, an intriguing antique bell is discovered, an old sculptor arrives telling tales of goblins. And perhaps the strangest thing of all, the fur on one of the reindeer begins shining extraordinarily bright. It almost looks like he could fly . . .

The cousins want to get to the bottom of what’s going on, but can they truly believe what they are seeing?

Each of the chapters is sealed by its own perforated enclosure that readers can gently tear open—by hand or with the help of a ruler—to enjoy.

Keep the anticipation building by opening one of the twenty-four sealed chapters each day in the lead up to Christmas!
