Synopsis

Coco Pinchard's Must-Have Toy Story is the second, stand-alone prequel novella to Robert Bryndza's smash-hit Coco Pinchard series. A sparkling feel-good Christmas comedy, which asks the question - how far would you go to get your child the must-have Christmas toy?It's December 1992, and children are going crazy for the Tracy Island toy - almost as crazy as the parents! Christmas day is fast approaching and Coco Pinchard is desperately trying to track one down for her four-year-old son Rosencrantz.Throw into the mix a horrible boss, a lazy husband, and the prospect of her in-laws arriving for the festivities, and Coco wishes she could cancel Christmas and sail off to a desert island somewhere - preferably with the gorgeous-yet-unattainable Tom from work.But retail therapy is at hand! Coco's faithful friends Chris and Marika rally round, and even her mother-in-law Ethel tries to help in her own eccentric way.From dodgy dealings in a motorway lay-by, to extreme shopping in Hamley's with a Sylvanian Families fanatic, to having a go at the Blue Peter make-your-own Tracy Island, Coco tries everything in the hope that Rosencrantz will open his must-have toy on Christmas morning.

Goodreads review by Joanne on October 19, 2018

Although this is book 5 in the Coco Pinchard series it’s actually a prequel and so can be read as a standalone Christmas novella. Even if you’ve not read any of the series you will appreciate the humour of the situation here as Coco attempts to make sure her son has the best Christmas ever! Now every......more

I am a huge Coco Pinchard fan and have read the whole series. If you haven’t read them then all I can say is that you are really missing out. Fear not if you haven’t read the others as even though this is the fifth book in the series it easily reads as a stand alone, just be prepared that once read,......more

Another fun read from Robert Bryndza! Coco is back! It’s just before Christmas in 1992 and four year old Rosencrantz only wants one thing, Tracy Island. The problem is so does every other kid, but Coco is determined to make it happen for her son. With a less than helpful husband, an overbearing mothe......more
