About this listen

A Heartwarming Tale of Peace Amidst the Chaos of War

Down at the Front, on a cold winter's night in 1914, amidst the worst war the world had ever seen, an inexplicable silence spread from man to man. Belief was in the air. Then the soldiers ceased fire and the magic of Christmas took hold . . .

Carol Ann Duffy's brilliant poem celebrates the miraculous truce between the trenches, when enemy shook hands with enemy, shared songs, swapped gifts, even played football, and peace found a place in No Man's Land.

With gorgeous colour illustrations by David Roberts, this special, full size edition of The Christmas Truce is a heartwarming Christmas gift to treasure. Perfect for fans of inspirational poetry and those seeking a message of hope and humanity in the darkest of times. Cosy up with this tale of unexpected camaraderie and the unifying power of the festive spirit, a stocking filler that will leave you feeling uplifted and filled with the true meaning of Christmas.
