A collection of Christmas poems and stories, the book also contains two contributions on the origin and meaning of Christmas.
From a historical point of view, Christmas has its roots in a number of ancient realities: prior to and through the early Christian centuries, winter festivals -especially those centered on the Winter Solstice- were the most popular of the year in many European pagan cultures. A Babylonian religious festival celebrating the birth of a god with yule logs and decorated trees, has also been described. But there is also evidence of historical connections between ancient India and Babylon, supported by some notable similarities between their religions.

Anyway, the real theme of this collection is the feeling of belonging to the Human Family, and this book is a further step in a common journey of friendship, peace and poetry
