Letters From Father Christmas by JRR Tolkien
Yes. The book is written by THE JRR Tolkien. The Shire, Bilbo Baggins, Sauron Tolkien. but this was never meant to be a book by the beloved author. Every year JRR Tolkien would write letters to his children. They would be stamped from the North Pole under the guise of being written by people and creatures who lived there. He would write stores of reindeer getting loose, how an accident prone polar bear fell through the roof of Santa’s home and more endearing tales from one of the greatest fantasy writers of our time. The hardcover is decked out with illustrations and handwritten letters.
