“How to be jolly even when times are bad 1. Eat more gingerbread, chocolate, jam and cake. 2. Say the word ‘Christmas’. 3. Give someone a present. Like a toy, or a book, or a kind word, or a big hug. 4. Laugh, even if there is nothing to laugh about. Especially then. 5. Think of a happy memory. Or a happy future. 6. Wear something red. 7. Believe. (extract from How to Be Jolly: The Father Christmas Guide to Happiness)”
― Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas

“... when someone is good, or kind, it’s a magic in itself. It gives people hope. And hope is the most wonderful thing there is.”
― Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas
