It's almost Christmas, so Hopscotch and friends decide to put up their tree. But when their old one falls apart, no one can agree how the new one should look. Big, or small, fat or thin? Can the friends work together to find a new one? After all, it wouldn't be Christmas without a tree... would it? Hopscotch and the Christmas Tree is a brand new Christmas story and the first book in the Happy Go Hopscotch series. Based on the principles of The Science of Happiness, Happy Go Hopscotch teaches children and parents alike the importance of being happy. Follow Hopscotch the horse, Malcom the cow, Barbara the sheep, Carlo the cat, Ingrid the pig and Jules the chicken on their first snowy adventure and learn that, whilst everyone is different and likes different things, we can all come together to reach a common goal. A cross-media series, Happy Go Hopscotch was shortlisted for the Bafta Rockliffe Children's Writing Competition in 2014, selected for the BCreative Lab in 2015 and was awarded development funding from Creative Europe in 2015.
