‘One, two, three, away, tally ho!’ Cried Santa with glee as the crew left the snow. Flying along feeling confidence grow, Oblivious of all the chaos to flow. Is anyone out there to help them tonight? Can Christmas be saved from this almighty fright? Will Santa use his savvy to overcome adversity? Buckle up and come along for the ride of Santa and his reindeers’ life!
Author: Nikki Franc grew up in Sydney and is now based in Melbourne with her husband, 2 daughters and pooch, Echo. During her 20s she travelled Europe and ran a bar on Santorini Greece. Religiously, she would post witty letters home to her parents to keep them informed of her adventures, as no mobile phones or internet existed. Having caught the travel bug, she then worked as a flight attendant for 10 years before starting her family. Nikki Loves to play music and has written a few songs. Savvy Santa was developed 9 Christmases ago and stowed away in a drawer. The long lockdowns in Victoria prompted her to open that drawer and breathe life back into Savvy Santa! Illustrator: Amy has loved to draw from a young age and often made up games around drawing to entertain her younger brother and cousins. Her artistic talent was noticed and then accepted into fashion and textile design in high school and later at TAFE. When she became a mother, she fell in love with picture book illustration, and realised what her true potential could be. Amy has developed a few distinct styles and is always playing with new techniques to expand her repertoire. When Amy’s not doing her favourite thing (illustrating picture books) she’s badly roller skating or attempting a handstand while her kids whizz around her at great speed.
* A hopeful and funny tale about what Santa does in a tricky situation. * Themes of Christmas, family, and how to keep going in the face of adversity are at the heart of this story. * Rhyming text assists in literacy and vocabulary skills in young readers. * Magical watercolour illustrations featuring everyone’s favourite Christmas characters by talented artist, Amy Calautti.
