Letters from Father Christmas by J.R.R. Tolkien
Summary (from the publisher): Every December an envelope bearing a stamp from the North Pole would arrive for J.R.R. Tolkien's children. Inside would be a letter in strange spidery handwriting and a beautiful colour drawing. They were from Father Christmas, telling wonderful tales of life at the North Pole. From the first note to Tolkien's eldest son in 1920 to the final poignant letter to his daughter in 1943, this book collects all the remarkable letters and pictures in one enchanting edition. Review: This was such a delightful book. This is a collection of letters written by famed author J.R.R. Tolkien between 1920 and 1943 as Father Christmas to his children. They are wonderfully imaginative and feature and tell all kinds of tales of life at the North Pole, including many mentions of the character North Polar Bear. This really lets you get a peek inside the whimsy and magic Tolkien brought to his children's lives. As his children age, the books become more mature...
