Produced to mark the centenary of Dylan Thomas’s birth, this is a special edition of Gillian Clarke’s story The Christmas Wren, written in response to A Child’s Christmas in Wales.
Commissioned by the Dylan Thomas Centre, the story is for adults and children, and is a magical tale of the Christmases of a Welsh childhood populated by aunts and uncles, snow and starlight, boxes and baubles.
Gillian Clarke is a leading poet, and was appointed National Poet for Wales in 2008.
“The Christmas Wren is a masterpiece and is destined to become a classic.”
Carol Ann Duffy, Poet Laureate
Colour illustrations throughout by Lotte Beatrix Crawford.
