"The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey" Twentieth Anniversary Edition
It's hard to believe that The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey, written by Susan Wojciechowski, and illustrated by me, is twenty years old.
It has been hugely successful selling more than a million copies in the US alone and has been translated into many different languages.
The audiobook read by James Earl Jones was nominated for a grammy and there were stage versions and musicals were also created.
In 2007 a movie version was made starring Tom Berenger, Joely Richardson and n one of her earliest roles, Saoirse Ronan.
The book won numerous awards for Susan and for me, including the Kate Greenaway Medal, the Christopher Award and the Bisto Irish Book of the Year Award.
Below you can see some of the different incarnations of The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey.
I'm really delighted with the new large format edition which celebrates our twentieth anniversary.
