Say hello to Sadie ... a superstar baker with a big heart!
In this book, Sadie needs to:
surprise her class with Christmas cookie gifts
make a berry pavlova for a Christmas Eve tea party
build a gingerbread house masterpiece with her best friends
But Sadie's sweet intentions do not always go to plan! Her cookie gifts are surprisingly messy. Her pavlova is a crackly catastrophe. And the gingerbread house starts to crumble! Can Sadie find a way to save the day
In these three Christmas stories (complete with recipes!) the unstoppable Sadie shows that any problem can be solved with generosity, kindness and, of course, a stockingful of Christmas spirit.
Lana LOVES writing kids' books just as much as Sadie LOVES sprinkles! Her writing is endlessly inspired by her young daughters who she lovingly calls her little book butterflies. Lana spends many hours treasure hunting in bookshops and attempting messy home bakes. She hopes to inspire a love of storytelling through her books and sensationally sweet characters.

She hopes her images will inspire kids to pick up a pencil and create their own worlds through stories and art.
