A Child's Christmas in Wales, by Dylan Thomas with woodcuts by Ellen Raskin

A Child's Christmas in Wales, by Dylan Thomas with woodcuts by Ellen Raskin

  • 995


This classic Christmas story by Dylan Thomas is one of our favorite works of prose, and this is a beautiful small rendition based on a version first designed and illustrated by Ellen Raskin in 1954. The design is classic and timeless and absolutely gorgeous.

This gem of lyric prose has enchanted both young and old for 75 years since its first publication in Harper's Bazaar in 1950. It's now a modern classic. Dylan Thomas captures a child's-eye view and an adult's fond remembrance of a magical time of presents, good things to eat, aunts and uncles, the frozen sea, and in the best of circumstances, newly fallen snow––its wonder, silence, and snowball mischief.

Softcover, 48 pages. 2021 edition of the 1959 paperbound version of the book that was based on the original 1954 edition.
