When Lydia Marmalade promises to help a mischievous sprite, can she find out the true meaning of friendship? A brand-new, hilarious Christmas adventure from comedian and writer Cariad Lloyd.

'Will have you laughing through Christmas and beyond . . .' Sara Pascoe
'Written with a genuine sense of fun - and funny - giddy adventure, this is a great Christmassy choice for young and young-at-heart humans and their sausage dogs' Matt Haig
'Lydia Marmalade's Christmas Adventure is magical festive fun with the perfect balance of heart and humour' Anna James

In the weeks before Christmas, Lydia Marmalade arrives in London - a city she'd never dreamt of visiting - with an important mission: to rescue a missing ice sprite.

Without much say in how to spend her time, Lydia has to attend one society party after another, but her attention is focused elsewhere.

Determined to make the most out of her London trip, she embarks on an unforgettable adventure with her trusty sausage dog, a frosty ice queen and a newfound friend. Sometimes you just need magic to reveal your own power . . .

A Christmas story full of humour and heart to read with all the family with gorgeous illustrations. Perfect for fans of A Boy Called Christmas and The Christmasaurus.

Praise for Lydia Marmalade and the Christmas Wish:
'Christmas magic - a book only Cariad could write with such beauty and relatability!' Giovanna Fletcher
'Full of wit and larger-than-life characters' The Daily Mail
'Deliciously funny and full of Christmas magic - a perfect play on Austen for young readers' Lauren Child
'I loved this book! A gorgeous, warm festive yarn, funny and also so full of heart. Not to mention a dachshund called Colin. This feels like one of those books you'll want to read every Christmas.' Nadia Shireen, author of Grimwood
