Of all the modern holiday classics, this is perhaps the best known and best loved. In humorous, sonorous, nostalgic prose, Dylan Thomas recalls the church-going, the tree-trimming, the food, the carols and games, not of one childhood Christmas but of them all: he distills here the Perfect Dream of Christmas. For this edition, the immortal Edward Ardizzone produced 30 delightful watercolors and drawings (and if you're clever you can recognize Cardiff as the Welsh town in which the story is set) as a perfect counterpoint to Thomas's lilting words.

The perfect way to revisit the youthful excitement of Christmas, but with an appreciation that comes only with maturity.
2014 is the centenary of Dylan Thomas's birth and this classic story about his childhood Christmases features wonderful illustrations by acclaimed illustrator Edward Ardizzone.
