All is Bright
Author: Dave Preston

Derek Bradley's only a lad growing up in the 1960's, but he'll soon tell you just what it's like to celebrate a proper Christmas in a small Yorkshire Village.

The advent calendar is in the Bradley household is full of adventures-Derek's first crack at carol singing ends with his first kiss. Dad's lost wage packet means a lean festive season, until the law's broken, and a search for holly ends with a romantic, ghostly encounter.

As Joseph in the school nativity play, Derek fuels a merry riot. Good old-fashioned Christmas magic is everywhere, until Granddad conjures with flames at the dinner table.

In frosty bedrooms, damp village halls, and Santa's shabby grotto at the CO-OP, all is not calm, but it's certainly bright.

Here's twelve terrific tales that show how Christmas used to be-real, fun, and really funny!
