Day 20 is Anne Fine’s hilariously funny The More the Merrier, all about a Christmas when too many relatives come to visit.
The Christmas holiday is, traditionally, a time for families to gather together. But more definitely does not mean the merrier in Ralph’s household – not with Uncle Tristram hurling spuds at the cat, cousin Titania in her frilly dresses, nutty Great-Aunt Ida and others. Mum’s on the verge of a breakdown and Ralph’s been banished to his bedroom…
This is definitely a laugh-out-loud book, just the thing to borrow over the holidays.
