About this book

The 2022 Christmas collection brings some old favourites along with some new selections, from the traditional to the bizarre. Among the selections, there's a man who revels in having been born on Christmas, and a man who believes he'll die on Christmas; wild animals who set up their own Christmas tree, and a wild town that's tamed for one Christmas celebration; the faith of two small children's prayers, and faith in the existence of Santa Claus affirmed. Enjoy! (Summary by TriciaG) "My Uncle Peter" is taken from two texts. Part 1 is listed below; Part 2 is HERE.
