What did you all think about this book? It was not exactly what I thought it was going be, I was thinking Lord of the Rings...but with Christmas. But I loved seeing the creativity Tolkien was with his children. It is so sweet to see all the of the photos and letters that he took the time to write his Children.
I enjoyed the rhymes, the pictures, and the attention to details of each characters hand-writing.
It was kind of him to help reassure his daughter during the war I thought through Father Christmas, it is something we do not forget, but doesn't always stand out when reading authors from the era.
What did you think about this book? I enjoyed it, but it was harder to read for me than the other 2. But I did enjoy the creativity that he showed. Just a reminder that he was a father as well as a author. And he clearly loved his children,
What was your experience reading this book?
I do not know if I could have kept it up that long...what about you?
Would you have introduced the other characters? The Polar Bear? The Elf?
Happy Discussing!
