The Orc Who Saved Christmas (Loveable Monster Holiday)
Michelle Franklin, author
He sees you when you’re sleeping. He knows when you’re awake. He wants to celebrate Christmas-- so invite him, for orc’s sake!
Orcs don’t usually celebrate Christmas, but that won’t stop Darryn the kindhearted half-orc from celebrating by himself. After watching his mountain village celebrate the holiday without him for many years, a girl named Karla invites him to join the holiday festivities. Will a clever disguise and the power of friendship be enough to turn the hearts of the hard-hearted? It might take an orc-mas miracle!

“And what if Father Christmas was an Orc?” Karla rejoined. “He saved our men and brought us our tree and firewood—isn’t that what Father Christmas ought to do? What’s the difference if he wears a costume or not?”
This is just such a wholesome little tale about an Orc who wants to belong and the little girl who helps him do it! It’s about broadening one’s mind and accepting others. Very sweet and kind and lovely!
I can’t wait what adorable little tale Franklin publishes next!
