Quincy: A Story for Children

by Tommy Steele

On the night before Christmas Eve, Quincy, the brave little boy doll, comes to life and sets out alone on a difficult journey to save the lives of the reject toys who lie discarded in the toyshop basement. Climbing stairs as huge as to him as massive mountains and facing many unexpected enemies, Quincy must reach Santa Claus on the top floor before he becomes a toy again the next morning.
