The North Pole Appeal by Rita Mendoza and Hector Luciano is 'A Timeless Christmas Classic.' Christmas is coming to Middletown, Wisconsin, and kids are getting excited. Well, most of them. Michael Eldritch is always on the naughty list, playing tricks on people and causing chaos wherever he goes. Michael Aldrich is new to the area, and he loves Christmas and helping others. On Christmas Day, one boy expects his dream gift, while the other expects a lump of coal. But what happens when a clumsy elf called Torres gets things mixed up? This is the start of a magical adventure to put things right and change Christmas forever. Will Michael Aldrich get the gift he deserves?
The North Pole Appeal by Rita Mendoza and Hector Luciano is a wonderful kids' story with stunning illustrations that jump off the page at you. This is a fun story that will captivate and enchant young readers as they follow Michael Aldrich on his journey for justice. It's action all the way, written in a way that draws you in and has you hanging onto every word. This is a story to bring the magic of Christmas to everyone, a heartwarming tale of justice, but it's also a reminder that, sometimes, there's a very good reason why some kids act out. The story teaches kids that it's never too late to put their hands up and admit when they are wrong. I loved reading this heartwarming tale, and I guarantee kids – and adults – the world over will love it, too.
