'The meaning of Christmas is to give of yourself - to open up the joy in your heart and share it generously. If you do this properly, then every day will feel like Christmas.' Employing a humorous modern-day fable style that he both created and perfected, Bradley Trevor Greive (BTG) pairs his witty prose with captivating black-and-white animal photos to offer readers an uplifting antidote to quell gift-wrapping rage, mall meltdowns, stay-too-long-inlaw-itis, and other seasonal joys and jeers. BTG implores readers to recall Christmas's best attributes and make them a part of everyday life. 'In doing so,' BTG explains, 'we make our lives and the lives of those we come into contact with much more enjoyable and far more rewarding.' With gentle humour and uplifting insights, Greive discusses the true meaning of Christmas and gift giving and how to bring them into our lives all year round.
