The Laughing Elephant's Book of Christmas

We here at Laughing Elephant believe that Christmas is a shared cultural heritage. While few people in the 21st century celebrate with flaming Christmas puddings or one horse open sleighs, these are both inexorably linked with holiday traditions worldwide.

In The Big Book of Christmas, we attempt to bring the most iconic Christmas symbols to vivid life through vintage images and selected text. More than one hundred wonderful pictures that celebrate various traditions, such as: Santa's workshop, letters to Santa, gift shopping and wrapping, decorating the house and tree, Christmas Eve, carol singing, the nativity, Christmas dreams, Santa's delivery, Christmas cards, and more. This title also includes famous poems and quotations that celebrate the yuletide, including: The Night Before Christmas, The Twelve Days of Christmas, and more.

This book is perfect for families or as a gift. Read together this year, introduce young children to Christmas icons, and treasure shared memories with peace and goodwill towards men.
