Media Reviews
Abie Longstaff has just added The Fairytale Hairdresser and Father Christmas to her spectacularly popular series about Kittie Lacey, the fairytale heroine who uses her hairdressing skills to save the day, and this time, to save Christmas! * Sussex Life *
The text is easy to read and Lauren Beard's illustrations are full of details and humour, we spent lots of time spotting our favourite fairytale and nursery rhyme characters. I love the picture where the characters are opening their presents, there are some amusing and inspirational ideas, particularly the presents that Snow White and Goldilocks receive! My daughter likes exploring Father Christmas' house with its workshop and gift wrapping room and we love the hairstyles that Kittie gives the elves and reindeer. The Fairytale Hairdresser and Father Christmas is a feelgood Christmas story which includes presents, stockings, trees, snow and a lovely glittery final double spread which shows all the characters iceskating. It would make a perfect Christmas present for all fairytale fans. -- Catherine Friess * Storysnug *
A lovely book, and one that I know one little person in our family is going to enjoy reading again, again and again!!! -- Christine Frayling * We Love Books *
No little princess or prince should be without these stories, filled with fairytale fun and a surprise glitter spread. * Gransnet Feature 'Best Children's Books of 2014' *
