The Best Christmas Book Written - By: Ms. J. M. Westwood, 11 Nov 2003 
This story is my favourite Christmas read. Every year without fail me dad has read this to my family on Christmas eve. It is a tradition that we all love, even my eldest sister who is now twenty two years old. The story appeals to people of all ages as it reminds you of Christmases may have had as a child, the joy of falling snow, the fun of getting resents that will irritate your parents & friends, & most of all being with the family.
If you have never read this book or any of Dylan Thomas' books then this is a good place to start. I hope that you enjoy reading it yourself or to others as I have done.
A Christmas classic in homes throughout the world. - By: , 16 Dec 1999 
Dylan Thomas made hours of recordings of his poems, stories & plays, but none is as endearingly personal as this distillation of his childhood Christmasesin Swansea. Yetin creating it, Thomas located something universal. As an American, I had no trouble identifying with the young Welsh boy who celebrates his holidayin equal doses of humour & wonder.
And Thomas's performance is unforgettable. Put a log on the fire, pour a cup of tea & let the poet's rich, deep voice take you straight to the heart of Christmas.
