A Festive Anthology of stories, anecdotes, poems and pictures, from published and unpublished writers, from new scribblers to international best-selling authors. What makes The Book Whisperers special is the community of writers, authors, poets and illustrators, coming together to support and encourage each other – learning and growing together.
All stories have to start somewhere and since at least the year 1380 fairy tales and folk tales have traditionally started with ‘Once upon a time ...’ and often ended with ‘And they all lived happily ever after.’ It, therefore, seemed a fitting title for our collection of festive stories and poems to call it ‘Once Upon Another Time’.
We hope these pieces move you, make you laugh, inspire you and warm the cockles of your heart.
