It’s St Nick’s turn for an adventure down the rabbit hole. There he meets the Mad Hatter, recast as a high-fashion, reindeer-loving tea party host; the White Rabbit, an endearingly scatty and forgetful character; the Queen of Hearts, a Scrooge-esque tinsel-hater, her antagonistic sidekick, the Cheshire Cat and Alice herself, whose kindness helps St. Nick save Christmas.

The unlikely friendship of a boy, a mole, a fox and a horse traveling together in the boy's search for home.

The story of an honest Lincolnshire farmer, hit hard by the credit crunch, squeezed by a greedy supermarket and struggling to survive. All his fortunes lie in the farm's one remaining pig, and a rather dubious plan to cross it with an earthworm.
