A Christmas classic. What more can be said about it. A book that gives todays Christmas its definition and ideal.
It is great how the adaptations are quite close to the book. My favourite version being The Muppets. It is not Christmas if I haven’t watched that movie.
Merry Christmas all who stumble upon this.
I have read this for 2 or 3 Christmases now and I do enjoy it. it’s an entertaining read and makes me wonder why I have not read the Rumpole series of books yet. Something to change in 2026.
An enjoyable collection of stories with great humour and observations about the British justice system.
Enjoyable, I really like how Laurie Lee writes and his writing is very vibrant and beautiful. Lived a life and childhood I wish I would have had. The old days were the best days.
The book is in four parts each covering a season, and a chunk to do with London, it does cover Christmas but is not solely about Christmas. The title is misleading if you are expecting a book solely on Christmas.
I hope next year I finally get around to reading Cider With Rosie.
An interesting little book, I had no idea about it or the author prior to reading it. It is a very Godly book and Christian with lots of messages about God and God’s will. Somewhat dated for today’s World I think. It does read more of a child’s book but I cant see today’s children getting through it.
