The spirit of Christmas heals a sorrowing woodcarver’s heart in this stunning 30th anniversary edition of a poignant Kate Greenaway Medal-winning festive classic.

Although Jonathan Toomey is the best woodcarver in the valley, he is always alone and never smiles. No one knows about the mementos of his lost wife and child that he keeps in an unopened drawer. But one early winter’s day, a widow and her young son approach him with a gentle request – a request which leads to a joyful miracle. This moving, lyrical tale which unfolds with mastery, humour and emotional force, has been widely hailed by critics and readers as a true Christmas classic, and is gloriously illustrated by the inimitable P.J. Lynch.

Author of The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey, winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal. P.J. Lynch has won many awards, including the Mother Goose Award, the Christopher Medal three times, the Irish Bisto Book of the Year Award and the prestigious Kate Greenaway Medal on two occasions – for The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey by Susan Wojciechowski and When Jessie Came Across the Sea by Amy Hest. In recent years, P.J. Lynch has been commissioned to design posters for Opera Ireland and the Abbey Theatre, as well as designing stamps for An Post. He lives in Dublin.
