Armed with demigod wiles, a healthy dose of luck, and help from both old and new friends, Percy must hunt down the animals and set things right—or face consequences that make his previous world-saving quests look like a walk in the park.

Every Christmas Eve, he has to get down the chimneys—all of them—to deliver the presents. But how exactly does he manage it? Does he go down feetfirst or headfirst? What if he gets stuck? What if there's no chimney at all? Maybe he slides under the door, as thin as a piece of paper? Or is it possible he pours himself through the tap? The questions pile up, and the answers grow increasingly ridiculous and wonderfully plausible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eFrom the beloved duo behind \u003cem\u003eCat Mistakes\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Terrible Two\u003c\/em\u003e, Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen bring their signature blend of wit and charm to this timeless Christmas question.

Puffin Modern Classics are relaunched under a new logo: A Puffin Book. There are 20 titles to collect in the series, listed below, all with exciting new covers and fun-filled endnotes. Clive King's Stig of the Dump is a much-loved modern classic. It is the story of Barney and his best friend, cave-man Stig. Barney is a solitary little boy, given to wandering off by himself. One day he is lying on the edge of a disused chalk-pit when it gives way and he lands in a sort of cave. Here he meets 'somebody with a lot of shaggy hair and two bright black eyes' wearing a rabbit skin and speaking in grunts. He names him Stig. Of course nobody believes Barney when he tells his family all about Stig, but for Barney cave-man Stig is totally real. They become great friends, learning each others ways and embarking on a series of unforgettable adventures. Clive King was born in Richmond, Surrey, in 1924. When he was young his family moved to a village called Ash, near Sevenoaks in Kent, which is the setting for Stig of the Dump. He went to Downing College, Cambridge, and the School of Oriental and African Studies in London. He then served in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve. His service as a sailor and his work as a language teacher took him all over the world. Clive King lives with his family in Norfolk and is a full-time writer.
