The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey Award-winning illustrator by Susan Wojciechowski (author) and P.J. Lynch (illustrator) (UK edition)

A stunning 20th anniversary edition of a Kate Greenaway winning Christmas classic, this is the poignant tale of Jonathan Toomey. Although Jonathan is the best woodcarver in the valley, he is always alone and never smiles. No one knows about the mementos of his lost wife and child that he keeps in an unopened drawer. But one early winter’s day, a widow and her young son approach him with a gentle request – a request which leads to a joyful miracle. This moving, lyrical tale which unfolds with mastery, humour and emotional force, has been widely hailed by critics and readers as a true Christmas classic, and is gloriously illustrated by the inimitable P.J. Lynch.

Excellent Gift

My mother gifted this book to our family. My daughter loved it and so did I. It is the perfect book for Christmas, combining the Nativity with the love that conquers the bitter heart. I shall now buy it for my grandchildren.
