Grandad and Milly celebrate community and giving at Christmas in the third story in the award-winning and bestselling series.
The third book from the Waterstones Prize-winning and British Book Awards Children's Illustrated Book of the Year Grandad's Camper celebrates the power of community and the importance of giving at Christmas, especially to those who need it most.
Milly is so excited to be spending Christmas at Grandad's. There's so much to get ready before Grandad's friend, Viv arrives. Her home and bookshop have been flooded and she has no money to fix them, but Milly and Grandad have a plan to help Viv and spread Christmas cheer!

Creators
Harry Woodgate (they/them) is a multi-award-winning author and illustrator, whose debut picture book Grandad’s Camper won the British Book Awards for Children's Illustrated Book of the Year and the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize, was shortlisted for the Polari Prize, and named as an ALA Stonewall Honor Book. It was inspired by their university dissertation, which revealed a lack of representation for older LGBTQIA+ characters in children’s books. Their work has also been shortlisted for the V&A Illustration Awards, and the Folio Society Book Illustration Competition twice. When they’re not creating amazing books, they love writing music, cycling, baking, and exploring independent coffee shops and bookstores.
