A Magical Christmas Journey Around the World

Welcome to the magical world of Hapkinful and Wiggle's Christmas Adventures!

Join Hapkinful, her twin brother Hapki, their older sister Gracious, their big brother Kinder, and their cheerful little blue bird, Wiggle, as they climb aboard their enormous yellow magical suitcase, sprinkled with shimmering silver stars, and set off on extraordinary Christmas adventures around the world.

From sparkling Christmas markets and snowy European cities to colourful celebrations in faraway lands, every journey brings wonderful discoveries.

Along the way, the children explore famous landmarks, learn fascinating history, discover treasured Christmas traditions, taste delicious festive foods, and meet people from different cultures.

But their greatest adventures are the moments when they share a little happiness, offer a helping hand, and discover something new to be grateful for.

Written especially for children aged 5–9, these heartwarming Christmas stories celebrate friendship, family, kindness and the wonderful traditions that make our world so special.

Because wherever Christmas takes us, a little kindness can make the world brighter.

The Magic Behind Every Christmas Adventure

Every magical Christmas adventure begins in the beautiful Happyville Garden.

When the enormous yellow suitcase, decorated with shimmering silver stars, appears among the flowers, Hapkinful, Hapki, Gracious, Kinder and Wiggle know that another wonderful journey is about to begin.

Together, they travel across snowy mountains, sparkling cities, peaceful villages and faraway lands, discovering how families and communities celebrate Christmas around the world.

Along the way, they explore fascinating history, visit famous landmarks, enjoy delicious Christmas foods and discover traditions passed down through generations.

But the most important part of every adventure isn't where they go. It's the kindness they share along the way.

Whether helping someone who is lonely, sharing a warm meal, making a new friend or simply offering a smile, the children discover that even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference.

And when their adventures are over, the magical suitcase carries them safely home to Happyville, where they share their wonderful discoveries with the villagers, their friends and their family.

Every journey begins with a little magic and ends with a heart full of gratitude.

Live Happy. Be Kind. Stay Grateful. Be Hapkinful.

A Christmas Message from Hapkinful

Christmas has always been a wonderful time for sharing happiness, kindness and gratitude.

As a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and lifelong traveller, I have come to appreciate how the simplest moments often become our most treasured memories.

During my travels, I have discovered that although our countries, cultures and traditions may be different, kindness is something we can all share.

That is the inspiration behind Hapkinful and Wiggle's Christmas Adventures.

Through these stories, I hope to take children on magical journeys around the world, introducing them to beautiful places, fascinating history, wonderful Christmas traditions and delicious festive foods.

But most importantly, I hope to encourage young readers to look for opportunities to be kind, appreciate what they have and discover happiness in helping others.

Whether you're reading together beside a Christmas tree, sharing a bedtime story or exploring the world from your classroom, I hope these adventures bring a little extra magic into your day.

Thank you for being part of the Hapkinful journey.

Wishing you and your loved ones a Christmas filled with happiness, kindness, gratitude and beautiful memories.

With love and Christmas wishes,

Julia Hapkinful 💛
