Nearly anyone can sketch a recognizable holiday icon: a star-topped tree, a gingerbread man, or Santa Claus. But only the finest artists can accurately re-create the warm Christmas images we hold within our hearts. Robyn Officer is one of these gifted illustrators, and her work in A Very Merry Christmas magically renews and enhances all the traditional and treasured Christmas memories we hold dear.Reading through this lovely holiday keepsake, you can almost smell the pine needles and freshly baked cookies. Family get-togethers, Christmas carols, and special gifts flow from Robyn's pens and brushes. This spirit of Christmas joy-experienced in everything from children eager to visit Santa to strangers going out of their way to be kind to others-also comes through in the quotations and writings of Charles Dickens, Martin Luther, Edmund Sears, and others throughout the book.
