The first ever B-format edition of Tolkien's complete Father Christmas letters, including a new introduction and rare archive materials. 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 coloured drawing or some sketches. The letters were from Father Christmas. They told wonderful tales of life at the North Pole: how all the reindeer got loose and scattered presents all over the place; how the accident-prone Polar Bear climbed the North Pole and fell through the roof of Father Christmas's house into the dining-room; how he broke the Moon into four pieces and made the Man in it fall into the back garden; how there were wars with the troublesome horde of goblins who lived in the caves beneath the house! Sometimes the Polar Bear would scrawl a note, and sometimes Ilbereth the Elf would write in his elegant flowing script, adding yet more life and humour to the stories. No reader, young or old, can fail to be charmed by the inventiveness and 'authenticity' of Tolkien's Letters from Father Christmas. To mark ten years since the publication of the complete edition of Tolkien's Letters from Father Christmas in 1999, this new edition is the first time the letters have been available in B format.
It was the biggest bang in the world, and the most monstrous firework there ever has been. It turned the North Pole BLACK and shook all the stars out of place, broke the moon into four -- and the Man in it fell into my back garden. He ate quite a lot of my Christmas chocolates before he said he felt better and climbed back to mend it and get the stars tidy. (查看原文)
This horrible war is reducing all our stocks, and in so many countries children are living far fro their homes. Polar Bear has had a very busy time trying to get our address-lists corrected. I am glad you are still at home. (查看原文)

Tolkien was definitely a fantastic father who created a brand new world in order to keep the magic alive for his children. My eyes were wet as I read the book and those cute illustrations. It reminded me of my grandparents who are now suffering from diseases. I do hope I can find a way to alleviate their pain. (展开)

看的是法语版的，这老爸太文艺了，装作圣诞老人给孩子写信不说，还故意写的歪歪扭扭的说是手冻的直颤。文学老爸卖起萌来谁也挡不住啊
