Book excerpt: Santa has HAD it! For generations, he's received letters from children all over the world telling him their greatest wishes for Christmas. They believed in the magic and he believed in them. But with every new tech gadget, gizmo and goody, Santa would receive fewer and fewer letters. Now, his worst fears have come true: not one, single letter from anyone all year long. Without any letters, Elves have nothing to build and reindeer have nothing to haul, so Santa decides it's time to give the world a much-needed holiday gift: he cancels Christmas. In the first Global Group text, Santa spells it all out...the importance of human connection, face-to-face interaction and never letting the child inside get lost in the trappings of adulthood. This is a modern, poignant, on-the-rednose tale for the whole family that reminds us all how important it is to be present, how technology can disconnect us, and how we can believe in the magic and hope of Christmas again without ever downloading an app.

Book excerpt: In Rudolph, New York, it’s Christmastime all year long. But this December, while the snow-lined streets seem merry and bright, a murder is about to ruin everyone’s holiday cheer in the first Year-Round Christmas mystery. As the owner of Mrs. Claus’s Treasures, Merry Wilkinson knows how to decorate homes for the holidays. That’s why she thinks her float in the semi-annual Santa Claus parade is a shoe-in for best in show. But when the tractor pulling Merry’s float is sabotaged, she has to face facts: there’s a Scrooge in Christmas Town. Merry isn’t ready to point fingers, especially with a journalist in town writing a puff piece about Rudolph’s Christmas spirit. But when she stumbles upon the reporter’s body on a late night dog walk—and police suspect he was poisoned by a gingerbread cookie crafted by her best friend, Vicky—Merry will have to put down the jingle bells and figure out who’s really been grinching about town, before Vicky ends up on Santa’s naughty list…
