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 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 and how the accident-prone Polar Bear climbed the North Pole and fell through the roof of Father Christmas's house into the dining-room! This moving collection of stories from a whimsical father to his children is a delight for all – a perfect family audiobook for the festive season.
