Beginning with the King's Cook, who is preparing a sumptuous
Christmas Pie, Wenceslas takes us to a medieval feast. The lords
and ladies are at their places, the wine is in full flow, the
musicians are playing in the gallery and the entertainment has
begun. All should be perfect. But when the good King looks up from
his table he sees something more than just snow, falling deep and
crisp and even . . . Richly illustrated by Stuart Kolakovic, this
gorgeous little book captures the age-old magic of Christmas. In
reimagining the much-loved carol of King Wenceslas, Carol Ann
Duffy's wonderful poem offers merriment and festive cheer, but also
celebrates what is truly important at this special time of year:
the simple acts of kindness that each of us can show another.
