The Hunt for Ginger's Gummy-Tots is a BEGINNER level StoryQuest adventure book

It's Christmas Eve and the town centre is alive with the buzz of the festive season. You step through the doorway of a tiny bakery with snow-laced windows, where an old woman is icing cakes behind a low counter. It's so quiet in here, so peaceful and-

"BLITHERIN' BAUBLES!" Crikey, you've heard car-horns more peaceful than that. "SOMEBODY'S NICKED GINGER'S GUMMY-TOTS!"

The baker is Fairy Berry. Her assistant is a gingerbread-man who she brought to life with four magic gummy-tot buttons. But someone has stolen Ginger's tots and hidden them all over Christmas Town, and Fairy Berry needs YOU to find them.

Can you stomach the stinky sprouts of Christmas Town to locate the missing buttons? And will you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way? Good luck, intrepid StoryQuester - if anyone can find Ginger's gummy-tots, it's YOU.
