No two people see anything the same way. No two people see even
something so familiar as Christmas the same way. It all depends on
your point of view. These verses - honest, sad, dry, touching,
happy, angry, funny, tragic, contented, smug, mischievous,
complacent, wistful, cocky, baffled, fatalistic, grateful,
sceptical - tell us how people feel when Christmas comes, or what
they do, or how they manage. They tell it as they see it. The
drawings tell it as you may see it. It will give all of us some
food for thought. The author: Berwick Coates was educated at
Kingston Grammar School, and studied History at Cambridge. Since
then, he has been at various times an Army officer, writer, artist,
lecturer, careers adviser, games coach, and teacher of History,
English, Latin, and Swahili. He has published eight books. He is
now the archivist at West Buckland School in Devon.
