Theo has been left at home on Christmas Eve with an inattentive babysitter. When four of the battered Christmas ornaments come to life, they lead Theo out into the night and to adventures.
This very wordy picture book feels more like a chapter book, really. The story is darling – very reminiscent of The Steadfast Tin Soldier or part of The Nutcracker.
