Description

This is a wonderful, illustrated Christmas tale that I’m sure will be loved for many years to come by both children and adults.
….Tonight was Christmas Eve and Greta Gumboot the good witch was wearing her special red suit, purple snow boots and white pointed hat over her shoulder length red hair. As the frosty flakes fell deep and thick in the woodland outside Greta Gumboot took a very special sack, made of soft, red Velvet out of her wardrobe. Her great uncle had given it to her when she was a young girl.

About the Author

Lee Pritchett was born in March 1986, on the Isle of Wight. At the age of twenty he wrote a children’s story based on a family member for a bit of fun called ‘The Tale of Hammy Telling and His Little Telling Tummy’. With this, the first children’s story he’d written in his adult life coming in the short list of the ‘Academy of Children’s Writers’ competition, he decided to study with them, with the aim of becoming a successful and respected writer of children’s literature. He now has three published collections of children’s stories, a published children’s novel and one published children’s joke book, all both written and illustrated by him.
