'I thought it was going to be the best Christmas ever...
'
When Dad and Mum break up, Em does her best to cheer up her little brother and sister, even though she's miserable too. She dances around and tells wonderful tales all about their favourite glove puppet.
Em knows how a good story can make life seem better - she is always cheered up by reading one of her favourite books. If Em got to meet the author, it would be a dream come true. But could her other greatest wish be granted? Is any story powerful enough to bring Dad back?

McCarthy's tale of his hilarious trip around Ireland has gained thousands of fans all over the world.
Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere.
