Christmas is a very special holiday for many people around the
world. In America, there is a migration of families and individuals
homewards during Christmas. In Europe, many places close for
Christmas and even whole cities seem to shut down. Families spend
Christmas together. Loved ones gather for festive celebrations.
There seems to be celebration in the air. Pedro Hernandez captures
the essence of Christmas in a humorous way. Hernandez takes a frank
look at Christmas as a social phenomenon. Relatives gather in what
amounts to explosive situations at times. There is the dilemma of
gift-giving. What presents would be good for mom and dad? What will
my girlfriend like for Christmas? Headaches seem to come in waves,
consecutively during Christmas. And there's the food. Lots of
Christmas food, leading to a culinary dance of gluttony. Hernandez
provides some practical advice to survive the Christmas holiday
ordeal. The sound advice is delivered with a great sense of humor
and will have you laughing throughout the book. The book is
thoroughly illustrated with interesting and beautiful photos of
door decorations for the Christmas season. This book is a treat for
the mind as for the sight.
