Summary

The HILARIOUS new novel and the year’s most perfect festive gift – from million-copy bestselling author David Baddiel 
It used to be the most WONDERFUL time of the year, but for years Christmas has been taken over by Winterzone. 
All the things that made Christmas special are gone: the human connection, the baubles passed down through generations, even the rubbish cracker jokes. 
Instead, Christmas is run by robots, while 3D holograms of Santa Claus called Santavatars check if you’ve been naughty or nice – and on Christmas Eve, all of the presents are delivered by ZoneDrones instead of Santa’s reindeer! 
But when they stumble on a curious clue, eleven-year-old Etta and her friend Monty find themselves thrown into a fight to bring back Christmas. Racing against time and against the might of Winterzone, they must find the real Santa – before the true meaning of the festive season is lost forever . . . 
In this humorous adventure, Etta and Monty's action-packed quest to restore the true spirit of the holidays will captivate children and adults alike. As a top bestseller from the Sunday Times bestselling author, Virtually Christmas is a heartwarming family story that redefines the meaning of Christmas. 
For fans of Tom Fletcher (The Christmasaurus), Ben Miller (Adventures of a Christmas Elf), Jeff Kinney (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), Danny Wallace (The Boss of Everyone), and Liz Pichon (Tom Gates 17).
