Fun little Christmas-adjacent stories told in letters. Picking this up closer to Christmas might make it more fun. Maybe it's nice to read on sort of an Advent calendar-type schedule rather than all at once, since it's maybe to  much for young readers to get into on their own and too long to read in one go at bedtime. I don't know that I can recommend the audiobook; the interstitial music is mostly just annoying and since it's in an epistolary format, looking at that on the page might be a little more engaging.
