Dr. Zazzy Saves Christmas

Dr. Zazzy Saves Christmas was written by Author Krystal Volney for children from ages 5 years old and for adults. Dr. Zazzy is a doctor who was born in Aberdeen, Scotland and wanted to help people feel happy ever since she was a child. As a result, she chose the career as a doctor and founded the Conquerors Foundation where she helped children around the world. Her real name is Stephanotta Minginsbird but was given the nickname "Zazzy" by her friends in Scotland because of her desire to help people feel blissful. Dr. Zazzy is feministic and does not believe in getting married. Although she lives in a penthouse, she spends most of her time helping children at the hospital in Aberdeen. At her home, she lives with her shabby cats Paolo and Miss Luna that she adores dearly. She has been living with them ever since she left Medical School at the University of Edinburgh. BOOK REVIEW 'Dr. Zazzy Saves Christmas' is a charming little book. It will appeal to many pupils newly attending primary school, ones eager to listen and follow a modern Christmas story. It is amply and simply illustrated, the characters having intriguing names that will help draw the reader and listener into the emerging action. The plot line is suitably straightforward, yet not in the least bit banal. The story clearly reveals how a fundamentally good character can be trusted upon to improve people's lives. Furthermore, Dr. Zazzy is supportive when life doesn't follow the way many people desire it to, for example, the ultimate values in life being greater than just the value of winning. The longer term needs of friendship, plus humans' reliance on Nature, especially as the dark hours of winter close in, will be recognised by people of all ages, as will the appreciation of art represented both in the book, and by the book. Well done Krystal Volney for creating such a gem. - Graham Powell, World Intelligence Network
