It holds 160 prompts, one to a page, with the rest of each page ruled for his answer. It is something a screen cannot give: a real book he can hold, write in, and hand on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt starts small, with \"What is the earliest Christmas you can remember, Dad?\", and works through the years: the tree and the stocking, his first Christmas as a new father, his gravy method, the drive to the grandparents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor sons and daughters who want the stories written down, and for fathers and grandfathers with a lifetime of Christmases behind them. The book suggests using it across the kitchen table, on a Christmas Eve drive or on the long Boxing Day walk. The prompts speak to him directly, as Dad; some mention his wife, children and grandchildren.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e160 numbered prompts in eight sections of 20, each section opened by its own title page:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristmas in His Boyhood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBecoming a Father at Christmas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristmas at Work, Christmas at the Pub, Christmas in Service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarving, Cooking, Driving, Fixing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTough Years, Quiet Years, Grateful Years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Christmas Means to You Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetters, Books, and Things You'd Pass On\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStories Told Around the Christmas Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe harder years are not skipped: a Christmas after a loss, a row mended, a Christmas spent alone.
