About the Book
Christmas is three weeks away and a mysterious “Santa†has been mailing presents to sixth grader Sophie Washington. There is no secret Santa gift exchange going on at her school, so she can’t imagine who it could be.
Sophie’s best friends, Chloe, Valentina, and Mariama guess the gift giver is either Nathan Jones or Toby Johnson, two boys in Sophie’s class who have liked her in the past, but she’s not so sure. While trying to uncover the mystery, Sophie gets into the holiday spirit, making gingerbread houses with her family, helping to decorate her house, and having a hilarious ice skating party with her friends. Snow comes to Houston for the first time in eight years, and the city feels even more like a winter wonderland.
Between the fun, Sophie uncovers clues to find her secret Santa, and the final reveal is bigger than any package she’s opened on Christmas morning. It’s a holiday surprise she’ll never forget!
Here are some early reviews for Sophie Washington: Secret Santa:
- “In a world full of too young romances and artificial loves, this story of Sophie, her friends and family and the love and support they all share for one another is exactly what kids and teens should be reading about today. There are so many lessons to be learned in Ellis’ novel and her Sophie Washington series is well worth the read.”- Amazon Reviewer
- “It’s an easy read but challenging enough for kids to keep them engaged. The narration was spot on for a 6th grade kid and my son found it very relatable. It was sweet and poignant and I loved the focus on the lessons of forgiveness and support.” –Amazon Reviewer
- “Sophie Washington: Secret Santa is my favorite Sophie book to date. If a reader has read the first book from the series, they will meet again characters that they have not seen since. I enjoyed the little twist and mystery involved in the story…I am giving it five plus stars.” –Amazon Reviewer
- “
Author Tonya Duncan Ellis knows her readers quite well and her creative writing style makes for a perfect fit. And when finally the identity of the secret Santa is revealed, the story conveys the real meaning of Christmas, which is giving, forgiving, and spreading Christmas cheer to the most unlikely person in the world.” – Readers’ Favorite
