Every Day Is Christmas

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." --Bradley Trevor Greive, from Every Day Is Christmas

* New York Times best-selling author Bradley Trevor Greive now encourages readers to keep the Christmas spirit alive year-round.

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."

Bradley Trevor Greive was born in Australia's island state of Tasmania (yes, the same place the Tasmanian Devil comes from). He has been gainfully employed as an artist, cartoonist, furniture and toy designer, animation director, screen writer and Paratroop Platoon Commander. He currently lives in Sydney, Australia, and divides much of his time between Los Angeles and New York.
