Along with original poetry, talented Irish artists Helena Grimes, Rochelle Lucey & Shannon Bergin illustrated the book so each word is brought to life and full of festive wonder.

Conor Browne, who was receiving chemotherapy while writing poems for this book, says “I know first-hand how important it is to have a comfortable environment while receiving chemotherapy”.
