Father Christmas 40th Anniversary Edition by Raymond Briggs Review

It may be a 4oth anniversary edition, but the wonderful Father Christmas picture book by Raymond Briggs, never ages and never dulls.

Through a series of beautiful and humorous illustrations, we follow the bad tempered Father Christmas through his most trying day of the year.

Though recommended for children aged from birth to three years, this book is suitable for much older children. In fact, the older they are the funnier it is.

Father Christmas moans about almost everything, until that is, he opens a bottle of Cognac from Fred.

It’s a book you will remember fondly from your own childhood and one you will want to share with your young children now.

Buy it for the family bookcase.
