About This Book
Reach for this book when you want to establish a meaningful holiday tradition that celebrates the power of parental devotion and the beauty of a well-imagined world. This collection features twenty years of letters written by J.R.R. Tolkien to his children, appearing to come directly from the North Pole. Through intricate illustrations and humorous tales of the North Polar Bear, the letters evolve from simple holiday greetings into a rich mythology. It is a perfect choice for families who value slow, intentional storytelling and want to see how a father's love can create a lifetime of magic for his children. While the early letters are lighthearted, the later entries introduce subtle themes of courage and standing against darkness, making it a wonderful bridge as children grow from early childhood into their pre-teen years.
