Coco's Christmas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798277256909)

For readers who loves a heartwarming tale of loss, belief, and the magic that happens when you're brave enough to hope again.
Eleven-year-old Coco stopped believing in Christmas the night her father's fishing boat disappeared in a storm. Five years later, she's content with her inventions, her coconuts, and staying far away from her island village's joyful celebrations.
Then a tropical storm brings something impossible: a crashed sleigh, eight overheating reindeer, and a fading Santa Claus who has only hours to save Christmas-or disappear forever.
Armed with nothing but fishing line, bamboo, and her gift for fixing broken things, Coco strikes a reluctant deal with Santa. She'll repair his sleigh if he leaves her alone afterward. No belief required. No hope necessary. Just engineering and common sense.
But when her new friend Groy falls into a flooding sinkhole, Coco discovers that some problems can't be solved with tools alone. Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is choose to believe-even when belief has broken your heart before.
Perfect for middle-grade readers who love stories about:
- Found families and community
- Grief, healing, and second chances
- Unlikely friendships that change everything
- Magic that feels earned, not given
- Strong, clever girls who save the day

Set on a vibrant tropical island where Christmas lights meet ocean breezes, this story reminds us that love remains even when people leave, that broken things-including hearts-can be fixed, and that believing again is the most courageous choice of all.
Ideal for ages 8-12 Perfect for fans of mythical science fiction
