The 12 days of Christmas in Stickleback Hollow are 12 short stories that take place over the 12 days of Christmas in the small village which is the home of so many mysteries. Each of the stories follows different characters from the series and do not play a part in the overall story arc.

As so many of the characters are named after cricketers, it seemed only fitting to use this charity book to raise money for two charities connected with the sport.
