Book Synopsis

From the New York Times-bestselling author and Grammy-nominated artist comes a funny, warm-hearted debut middle-grade novel about sisterhood, family, and how the holiday season is a time to be merry--and messy.

​All twins Stevie and Jordan Clementine want for Christmas is to enjoy the holiday with both of their parents--something they haven't done since they were too young to remember. Instead, the sisters expect to spend this season like they always do: hopping between their uncle's motel where they stay with their Grinchy rockstar dad while he is in town, and home where their frazzled mom is busy running the local community center during its hectic winter season.

But when their dad arrives with news that could wreck the halls, mischief-minded Stevie ropes her reluctant sister into a plan to save the holiday: get their parents under one roof for a movie-worthy Christmas. For their scheme to work, the girls will need plenty of holly-and-jolly cheer . . . and enough messy white lies to land someone on Santa's naughty list. Will Stevie and Jordan find a way to be honest with their parents (and themselves) before everything is Scrooged?

Irresistibly festive and fun, Tegan Quin's first solo-written novel, Merry Christmess, reveals how family messiness is sometimes the missing ingredient for true holiday magic.
