So after originally posting this having recieved what turned out to be only the first part of my gift:

"So happy to have recieved such a brilliant and thoughtful gift! I'm not sure how Mrquixotic found out I liked the book (I may have made a comment at some point about it I'm sure!)But I'm glad he did, because I can no longer find my original copy :( it may have been sent to a charity shop long ago! And as a bonus I have a new found caterpillar friend to read it with :)Thankyou kind sir! It is much appreciated. Apologies for the poorly taken photographs, I am no photographer and my brother's camera is complex in nature..."

Gifts kept on arriving at my door for the next few days! Blown away by the generosity shown by my secret santa and the thought (and copius reddit stalking!) that went into each of the gifts. In all I recieved:

The very hungry catapillar - gift set with plush toy

Avenue Q - The original cast soundtrack (My secret santa's favourite musical! Always wanted to go and see this one, but the soundtrack is keeping me happy and upbeat through my essay writing this winter break)

A Ukulele!!!!!! (+snazzy carrying case) I made an offhand comment about wanting one awhile back having seen a video on r/music, it's slightly different to the guitar, but I am slowley getting use to it!

Curious George rides a bike - I don't think there could be a more fitting ode to my username, this one arrived today so will get onto reading it tonight :)

Thankyou Mrquixotic I hope your secretsanta showed you just as much kindness as you have shown me :)
