It's the dawn before Christmas, Santa's ready to go,
But his reindeer are gone, out into the snow.
Now he needs to move fast, to get them all back,
To fly 'round the world and keep Christmas on trac

David Pearson is the author of The Dawn Before Christmas. Being a father to two curious sidekicks means he spends a lot of his time inventing stories to keep them entertained. He lives in Manchester with his wife and two daughters, and when he is not inventing stories or games, he works as an NHS accountant. Obviously, his favourite day of the year is Christmas Day!
