What if Santa simply doesn't know where to find your village?
This Christmas, little Poppy Featherbell has one very important question: Why has Santa never visited Meadow Marina?
In this heartwarming Christmas bedtime story, young readers are invited into a snowy lakeside village filled with glowing cottages, twinkling lanterns, festive treats, friendship, and a little Christmas mystery. When Poppy and her friends realize that Santa may simply need to know where they are, they come up with a wonderfully simple idea: write him a letter.
But this is no ordinary letter.
Soon, an enormous sheet of paper appears, four special Christmas wishes are carefully written down, and Poppy, Mrs. Maple Crumble, Mr. Thistle Tinker, and Grandma Elsie Winterberry begin a magical journey of hope, friendship, and Christmas wonder.
