I was given this book to read over Christmas and I like the cliffhangers at the end of each chapter to make you want to keep reading. It's a long book so needs to be read over time. Nicolas is my favourite character because he is the main character and he does most of the exploring when looking for his Dad.

A bit too long, but enjoyed hearing the story of Santa and his childhood.

My favourite character was Blitzen the reindeer and Nikolas. My favourite part was when Nikolas became head of the elf council with 8,972 votes,with only one (very grumpy) elf disagreeing. Here are the new rules for elves: 1. Do not spickle dance. 2. Do not play with toys in public. 3. Do not play with spinning tops in private or public. 4. Avoid joy and merriment at all times. 5. Never allow a human into Elfhelm.

Some of the bits are scary but good ending.

Wow! 'A Boy Called Christmas' is an amazing story! It's about a boy named Nikolas who goes on an incredible adventure to find his dad. He meets elves, trolls, and even a reindeer! The North Pole sounds like the coolest place ever. Nikolas is really brave and kind, and I loved how he never gives up. This book made me feel so happy and excited for Christmas. It's filled with magic and made me believe in the wonder of the holidays!

I honestly think that I love this book even more than" the girl who saved Christmas. " this book reminds people of the true meaning of Christmas! My favourite character in it is Blitzen, Nicolas' flying reindeer! Please read this book. I recommend this book for readers who are good at handling sad moments.

When Nikolas' father Joel let go off the sleigh and fell off that made me sad. I liked it when Blitzen pooed on Aunt Carlotta's face.

My favourite part was when Nicolas’s dad helped Nicolas to save Little Kip. I loved the book and would definitely recommend it to friends.

I loved it when Father Topo and Little Noosh sprinkled some of their elf magic over Blitzen and Nikolas and made the reindeer fly!

I really liked this book because it was so funny when The Truth Pixie said I was saving this last golden leaf for someone special to blow up their head. My favourite character was The Truth Pixie because she was the funniest character in my opinion. I think the saddest bit in the story was when Nicholas’ father died. I would recommend this book.

I thought it was a really good book and I would recommend it to people who believe in magic and love to explore. In this book, a boy called Christmasthe boy lives with his dad because his mother died. His dad is on a quest and he decided to not stay with his aunt but secretly tag on.

Well, it has a lot of comedy and laughter. Next, I wanted to say that it has a lot of adventure and hope. It's full of Drimwick and pixies, and also trolls.
