Slinky Malinki's Christmas Crackers

"Christmas was coming, the tree was in place, with baubles and tinsel and ribbons and lace."

It is Christmas time, and the house is filled with festive decorations—a playground of dreams for the mischievous Slinky Malinki. While the family prepares for the holiday, the "blacker than black" cat is busy investigating the glittering ornaments and dangling ribbons of the Christmas tree.

However, Slinky’s curiosity leads to a monumental holiday "crack." In this rhythmic seasonal adventure, our favorite spy-cat turns a peaceful Christmas morning into a whirlwind of shredded paper and scattered baubles. Lynley Dodd’s delightful verse and vibrant illustrations perfectly capture the chaotic charm of a pet during the holidays.

Slinky Malinki's Christmas Crackers is the perfect festive gift for young readers, filled with the energy, humor, and heart that make the Hairy Maclary and Friends series a timeless classic.
