Synopsis

The Nativity play is supposed to be the gentle highlight of Oddleton’s festive season.
This year, it’s more… explosive.

Long-suffering teacher Mrs Troyd is determined to deliver a peaceful, heart-warming school Nativity. The children, naturally, have other ideas.

The angels are arguing about which way up Baby Jesus should be held.
The shepherd has eaten her own bodyweight in Sour Squigglers.
And Mrs Troyd’s nemesis, Arianna le Grand, has whisked her perfectly-behaved children off on a last-minute skiing holiday, leaving gaping holes in the cast list.

Who on earth is going to replace the Angel Gabriel?
Will Mrs Troyd make it to Christmas with her sanity intact?
And did donkeys really wear sombreros in Ancient Palestine?

Full of heart, hilarity, and small-village mayhem, Christmas Comes to Oddleton is a delightfully disastrous festive comedy perfect for fans of cosy British humour, school-play chaos, and stories where everything goes wrong in exactly the right way.

Présentation de l'éditeur

For the teacher Mrs Troyd, the pressure is on. Christmas is coming to the little parish of Oddleton, and for Mrs Troyd Christmas means the children's Nativity play, awaited with great anticipation (or in some cases, trepidation) by the whole congregation. This year, however, all is not going quite as planned. Joseph is too shy to speak out loud enough to be heard. The little angels are squabbling over which way up to hold the Baby Jesus, and to top it all, Mrs Troyd's nemesis, Arianna le Grand, has taken her children (the Angel Gabriel and the Third King) on an unexpected skiing holiday. Who will stand in for the Angel Gabriel? Was it an unwise move for the Shepherd to have eaten three packets of Sour Squigglers and a Whistling Dayglo-pop before the play? And did donkeys wear sombreros in Ancient Palestine? Whatever happens, this will be a Nativity the parishioners will remember for a very long time....
