The More the Merrier by Anne Fine

Christmas comes but once a year. Luckily...Traditionally, families gather together for Christmas. In Ralph's case, this means ten or more relatives coming to stay, including nutty Great-Aunt Ida (the Home tell them to be careful not to let her out) and other weird adults and his ghastly cousins: Titania in her sick-making, frilly, fairy dresses, and twins Sylvester and Sylvia (it took till Easter last year before the family dog got over them). Jammed into one small house for three days of merriment and family fun, the TV on the blink and Mum on the verge of a breakdown, it soon becomes obvious that, in this house, more definitely does not mean merrier...
Anne Fine has been an acknowledged top author in the children's book world since her first book was published in the mid 1970s, and has now written more than forty books and won virtually every major award going, including the Carnegie Medal (more than once), the Whitbread Children's Award, the Guardian Children's Fiction Award, the Smarties Prize and others. Anne was appointed the Children's Laureate from 2001-2003. She lives in the North East.
