Let It Snow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Please don\u2019t think Let It Snow<\/a> is an instruction to the weather just yet. It\u2019s a book title. I\u2019m really very excited about the book and Mum has been reading it to me every night. It\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve been mentioned by name in the acknowledgements for a book. I don\u2019t think even Mum has ever included me. Anyway, I\u2019m mentioned and so are lots of places I know and love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switzerland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You may remember, a little under a year ago, one of Mum\u2019s writing friends, Sue Moorcroft<\/a>, came to Switzerland with us to research the book she was writing then. Well, Let It Snow is that book and it\u2019s now available to buy as an ebook. Mum has been reading a chapter to me when I go to bed and it\u2019s been wonderful to find things I\u2019ve done appearing in the book. Mum says that Sue\u2019s books are romance but with deeper stories than most in that genre. I don\u2019t want to give too much about the story away, but Lily is searching for part of her birth family and they don\u2019t know they even have a sister. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favourite places<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, I know how much you all love reading about my travels\nin Switzerland and you will find lots of those places in this book. Even our\nvillage of Alosen gets a mention, and the orange cow on next door\u2019s porch. My\nmountain is in there and the Christmas markets we went to near where Mama\nlives. Well, lots of places you will know from my travels, even the journey\nitself and the places we stay along the way. I\u2019m not actually the dog in the\nbook, he\u2019s called Doggo and is a Dalmatian. I really really like the sound of\nhim though and want to meet him. Mum has had to remind me it\u2019s fiction and isn\u2019t\nreal. She\u2019s said if I\u2019m good she will create me an imaginary Dalmation of my\nvery own!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, it\u2019s only 99p on Kindle at the moment so you really can\u2019t go wrong. You can buy it HERE<\/a> The paperback and audio book come out on 14th<\/sup> November. Mum\u2019s going to their launch, but I\u2019ve not been invited to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a great day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
