PROLOGUE
December 1992
The background of this children’s book has a distinctive
Caribbean flare. Remembrance of Christmas opens windows on different cultures and their similarities.  The comparable backgrounds I feel children the world over can relate to also adults.  Remembrance of Christmas narrative was drawn from memorable episodes of the Christmas season in my life while a child growing up in Guyana South America and Ghana West Africa.
          My desire to write about the joys of Christmas was ironically triggered by one of sadness.
It was close to Christmas day and I had not received a Christmas card from my son who then lived in Guyana.  It was a cold day the snow had fallen all night and into the morning.  I was on my way to work and had just missed the bus; all I could do was stand and lament. Then it slowly dawned on me I had to snap out of this depression before it affected my new loving family. Hence Remembrance of Christmas.
