THAT CHRISTMAS

Picture
Illustrator, Rebecca Cobb
That Christmas is based on the successful series of children’s books by filmmaker Richard Curtis (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Love Actually, Yesterday) and marks the feature film directorial debut of renowned character animation and story artist veteran  
Simon Otto (How to Train Your Dragon trilogy).

The three books in the series written by Curtis (published by Puffin) — The Empty Stocking, Snow Day and That Christmas — tell charming family stories taking place in the run-up to Christmas in a small English beach town.
