About This Book
In "Father Christmas Goes on Holiday," Raymond Briggs brings his beloved, slightly grumpy Father Christmas back for a well-deserved annual vacation. After his exhausting Christmas Eve deliveries, readers follow Father Christmas as he packs his bags and embarks on a global adventure, visiting picturesque France, the rugged Scottish Highlands, and the vibrant, unexpected setting of Las Vegas. This charming chapter book, told through Briggs's iconic comic strip style, offers a humorous and relatable look at what even a magical figure does to unwind. It's a wonderful read-aloud that celebrates the joy of travel and the importance of taking a break, perfect for children aged 4-11.
