. But it tells the only story that matters this Christmas.

This is not a Christmas book. The visual storytelling has a compelling ‘cinematographic’ pace, thanks to a great attention to lighting, characters poses and camera angles:Jim Field effortlessy transitions from Grandpa’s bright, idyllic memories to dramatic chiaroscuro when it comes to representing the fragile magnificence of nature, thus rendering the mixture of happiness and sadness that’s always present in Morpurgo's stories. In the guise of Grandpa Christmas, master storyteller Michael Morpurgo writes a poignant, somehow hopeful letter to the next generations, overflowing with love for nature and for our planet, and tackling important themes like climate change, sustainability and conservation.

And you will seriously want to gift it to any child you know. Jim Field is distant from the #OiFrog series: his style is purposely realistic yet non-specific, to allow the reader identification. The book is also beautifully illustrated. •••Still, Morpurgo goes beyond environmentalism, urging us to fall back in love with Mother Earth.

A lovely xmas present for any child, I would love to do something like this for my grandchildren. It is a letter about how we treat our world and living animals and how to preserve them. It is written in a beautiful way, so that Granddads letter really is a gift, a xmas gift just like he is really with them each and every xmas.

Rather than buying a xmas present Granddad writes a letter to his granddaughter which is put under the tree and read out loud by the family each xmas . This collective awakening is only possible with a mindfulness revolution that starts with children. This is a beautiful story.
