Jonathan Thomas Christmas On The Moon


holly leaf

"Hon-squee-non-squee-giggle-de-vay!"

It's bedtime, and six-year-old Jonathan Thomas and his teddy bear Guz are ready for a story before going to sleep. But before
the story can begin, a moonbeam shines through Jonathan's window and, much to his surprise, two little elves slide down it
into his bedroom. Before Jonathan can stop him, Guz takes off after the elves and scampers up the moonbeam chasing them.
Jonathan follows and soon finds himself involved in an exciting adventure to save Santa Claus, who has been kidnapped and
held prisoner in the Land of Squeebobble. Accompanied by the Man in the Moon and a horse named Gorgonzola, and traveling to
strange and exotic places like the Merry-Go-Round River, the Rainbow Bridge, the Wall Of Doors, and Looking Glass Land,
Jonathan meets and befriends a wildly imaginative group of characters in an adventure straight out of Lewis Carroll by way of
many of the best-loved fairy and folk tales of all time. Can Jonathan rescue Santa Claus in time to save Christmas...or will
he be defeated by the evil witch of Rumplestitch?

Jump Jump And The Ice Queen
Jump Jump
The Christmas holiday season is almost upon us and for anyone who enjoyed the
Cinnamon Bear
series we have a real treat in store for you.

Jump Jump and the Ice Queen is a wonderful children’s series, which was originally broadcast from Thanksgiving
through to Christmas in 1948.

The story is told to us by Tim a little boy who lives in an orphanage. It is almost Christmas and Tim has been talking to
some of the other boys in the orphanage and they begin to wonder whether Santa will remember them and worry that he will only go to “whole” families and
wouldn’t bother to stop at an orphanage.

When he goes to bed that night Tim cannot sleep and looks out of the window to the North Star. He thinks that if he could
just follow the North Star he would get to the North Pole before long and he’d find Santa and just ask him if he plans to visit everyone at Christmas.

Tim decides to set off and follow the North Star and sets off in to the woods. After walking for some time he lays down to
rest in the woods and just as
he is getting comfortable something taps him on his knee.
It was the tiny little elf Jump Jump who is to become the focus of this wonderful fantasy adventure tale. Jump Jump is a
little elf who jumps up and down,
backwards and forwards and sideways and who talks so funny and so fast that you can’t understand him all the time. He lives
at Holiday House with Mary Holiday who is Santa’s personal secretary and where every day is a holiday like Christmas all the time.

And so begins this charming and enticing twenty-five part series which is guaranteed to cheer up any child, grandchild or
young at heart over the coming holiday season.

There are twenty-five fifteen minute episodes which we will add each day throughout December.

"I'm a little elf, no feet three.
Very, very tiny, as you see.
I never walk, I never run,
I always jump -- it's much more fun!
My name is Jump Jump, jolly little Jump Jump.
Work is always play.
I'm quick as the wind and my very best friend
Is Mary Holiday!"
