Personalised Christmas book: All the lights go out

For children aged 3 to 8

First the street goes dark. Then the houses opposite. Then the whole village, all at once, on the one evening it was supposed to look its best.

Everybody stands in their doorway not knowing what to do. Your child is the one who starts, with a single candle at a window, and the idea travels from house to house until the village is lit by something better than electricity.

A story about a small idea that catches on, and about a street where nobody knew each other very well until the power went out.

Frequently asked questions

What happens in this story?

A power cut takes out the whole village on Christmas Eve. Your child puts one candle in the window, the neighbours copy it, and the street ends up brighter and a lot friendlier than before.

What age is this book for?

Roughly 3 to 8. Younger children follow the lights coming back one by one; older ones understand why it mattered.

Can our own street be in it?

You can mention your street, village or town in the details field and we will work it into the story.

Does Father Christmas appear?

He does, near the end, and he has an opinion about who really saved the evening.
