Описание
The complete series of Father Christmas letters written by JRR Tolkien for his own children between 1920 and 1943.
Can you imagine writing to Father Christmas and actually getting a reply? Every year, the children of J.R.R. Tolkien would write to Father Christmas, and the letters they received told wonderful stories of his adventures at the North Pole. These humorous tales are brought to life by Derek Jacobi as Father Christmas, John Moffatt as Polar Bear, and Christian Rodska as Ilbereth the Elf, complete with specially composed music.

Об авторе
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on the 3rd January, 1892 at Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State, but at the age of four he and his brother were taken back to England by their mother. After his father’s death the family moved to Sarehole, on the south-eastern edge of Birmingham. Tolkien spent a happy childhood in the countryside and his sensibility to the rural landscape can clearly be seen in his writing and his pictures.

This is the most charming book! Letters from Tolkien as Father Christmas to his four children. Simply delightful! I also found this on my library website as an ebook, so I read them together. The images of the original letters, plus Tolkien's artwork were definitely a labor of love.1 person found this helpful

I gave this one just a 4 star rating because the songs in between the letters were pretty annoying (imagine 5 times playing for 30 seconds in just one chapter). Although, I love the idea of Tolkien writing Christmas letters to his grown up children. P.S: Thankies Kate for recommendation!♡1 person found this helpful

Great book for an afternoon Christmas read or listen. Really amazing that the letters started 100 years ago in 1920. Very interesting as it moves into the 20s and 40s during the war.1 person found this helpful
