Filippa and her friends are preparing for Christmas. When they run out of chocolate candy, Filippa leaves to buy more and runs into Santa Claus. The same happens to Snoozy the Cat, André the Donkey and Cedric the Rabbit – only Santa seems to be constantly changing. How can he be found both under a tree stump, on a top shelf and on a balcony? This is too weird. And what does all this mean for Christmas?
A playful story about friends, Santa Claus and what, after all, is the most important thing about Christmas.
Juha spends his free time working with music and writing children's books. When writing for children, he jokes and plays with language, creating surprising adventures out of everyday events.
