I Don’t Feel Christmassy Yet is the debut picture book from Scottish musician and writer David McGinty (Endor, Fake Major) and illustrator Kirsty Hunter known for her work on Smithers & Wing and We Shall Fight Until We Win.
The shops are hanging their Christmas decorations and everyone is getting ready for the festive season. This is usually Grace’s favourite time of year but she just doesn’t feel Christmassy yet. She always has before, so why is this year different?
Grace tries everything she can to feel Christmassy, from writing to Santa to taking part in her favourite traditions. But nothing seems to help.
This year she just feels like something is missing.

5 Stars – A wonderful book for all ages.
A beautifully illustrated book with an incredibly heartwarming story. Grace is such a wonderfully three-dimensional character, I can't wait to see the film adaptation!

“McGinty... beautifully sympathizes with kids whose Christmas season feels lonely (and) illustrator Hunter’s skillful watercolor illustrations are varied and expressive.”
This year we’ve decided to close down our own online shop in favour of encouraging you to buy I Don’t Feel Christmassy Yet from Bookshop.org or from one of the many real bookshops around the country where it’s in stock.
We’re big fans of their work and if you can’t get into a local shop to buy or request I Don’t Feel Christmassy Yet, then we’d wholeheartedly recommend Bookshop.org for all your festive book buying.
