“A heartfelt and lovely Christmas tale for kids, moms, dads and book lovers everywhere!" New York Times "Christmas Comes Once a Year" is a wonderful Christmas-themed book The title itself is a nod to the old English proverb, emphasizing the significance of Christmas as a time of joy, festivity, and gathering. The book is structured as a collection of stories, anecdotes, and reflections, each centered around different aspects of the Christmas holiday. Leighton weaves together various elements of the season, such as the preparation of festive foods, the exchange of gifts, the decorating of homes with holly and ivy, and the communal spirit that defines Christmas. The narrative voice in Christmas Comes But Once a Year is often lighthearted and humorous, with Leighton employing a tone that invites readers to reflect on the joys and follies of the season. The book also delves into the moral and ethical aspects of Christmas, encouraging readers to consider the true meaning of the holiday beyond the materialism that can sometimes overshadow it. Themes of charity, kindness, and goodwill toward others are woven throughout the stories, reminding readers of the importance of generosity and compassion during the holiday season. The book also explores the idea of nostalgia, looking back at older Christmas traditions and comparing them to the practices of his own time. This reflection gives the book a timeless quality, as it resonates with readers who may also feel a sense of longing for the simplicity and purity of past Christmases. Beatrix Potter was an English author and illustrator best known for her classic children's books like The Tale of Peter Rabbit.
