Gabriel Snowboy Turns a Story Written for His Daughter Into a Holiday Fantasy Adventure for Everyone
Chisasibi, Quebec – September 10, 2026— Long before Gabriel Snowboy imagined a frost giant stirring beneath the North Pole, he was telling his daughter, Abby, a story to help her through a hard season. That story became Galactic Holiday: The Darkside of Christmas Past, [Ebook, Paperback, Hardcover], available now through [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HCDNB9YQ].
Snowboy didn’t set out to write a novel. The idea grew slowly, shaped by the kind of conversations parents have with a child who is scared or sad and needs more than reassurance. What started as a story for one child turned, over time, into a full-length fantasy adventure Snowboy hoped could reach other families facing the same fears.
The finished book follows Duke, a boy raised in Santa’s workshop who is still grieving the mentor he lost. When Duke learns that his birth mother is alive and that an ancient danger is stirring beneath the North Pole, he has to leave behind everything familiar to go find her. It reads as an adventure story on the surface, but the subject underneath it, Snowboy says, is what it looks like to carry loss instead of burying it.
That idea shows up before the story even starts. Snowboy dedicates the book to “anyone who has ever felt they were living in the shadows,” a line he says applies as much to his daughter as it does to any reader who picks it up.
“I wanted her to see a character carry something hard instead of just being told to be brave,” Snowboy said. “If this book does that for one other kid, or one other family, then it already did what it was supposed to do.”
Snowboy describes Galactic Holiday: The Darkside of Christmas Past as a book for kids like his daughter, and for the adults who love them: a story to read together when things are hard, built around a reminder that asking for help is not the same as giving up.
