“On Christmas morn,

beneath her crown,

still ruggled and snuggled

in feathery down,

Princess Claire dreamed

of Christmas to come:

of stuffing, and stockings,

and puddings of plum…”

In a twist on the nativity story, Princess Claire dreams of a sumptuous Christmas with just her parents. But before she can say ‘fanciful feast’, the palace is inundated with everyone from Lords to Knights, and even a dragon!

 

Surely there is no more room for anyone else?
