Description
Being misunderstood by the people who love you the most can be tough, but who better than Santa Claus to know the difference between naughty and nice? Malibu heads off on another fantastic adventure with his surfing crew to the beautiful Bondi Beach. Santa, Mrs. Claus and the elves love spending Christmas Day playing in the sun, surf and sand but one little elf is not having fun. Malibu our favourite Aussie hero helps Santa find out why the naughty elf is behaving so badly and helps him understand that following your passion is about being brave enough to stand up and stand out. Children will love this twist on a traditional Christmas story told through rhythmical words with captivating, comical illustrations of iconic Australian imagery. Malibu a kangaroo from Uluru, who knows what it feels like to not fit in, takes caregivers and children alike on another amazing journey to understand that fitting in isn't always easy.
