Get ready for Christmas with Winnie the Pooh’s wisdom and Alaine Polcz’s recipes! (x)

Preparing for the holiday can be at least as good as the holiday itself. Advent is the time of waiting for Christmas. (…) Always prepare in advance! Work done with joy does not tire you, but strengthens you. But only take on as much as you can handle! The result is not so important, but the action itself

– writes Alaine Polcz, psychologist and writer Let’s cook with joy! in the chapter on holidays in his book.

The book, which contains both recipes and household and lifestyle advice, was first published in 1998 – and in a short time it became one of the author’s most popular writings. He owes his success not only to his often-forgotten recipes that evoke the warmth of our grandmothers’ kitchens, but also to his good advice that “smells of life” that can be easily incorporated into everyday life, his live-talk-like style and playfulness.

Alaine Polcz writes: our experience increases in direct proportion to the number of ruined dishes. We wanted to draw attention to something similar when choosing this year’s volumes: we wanted to show that the holiday will not be truly memorable because everything goes perfectly, but because we are with the ones we love the most. For this Christmas, beautiful even in its imperfection, we have chosen two volumes that evoke slightly nostalgic feelings and dressed them in new clothes

says Ludvig Orsolya Stefanie, Marketing and Communications Director of Libri.

Like the Alaine Polcz volume, Winnie the Pooh – Wisdom from the Hundred Moon Pagony is also full of serenity, humor, and kindness. The book lists selected, iconic quotes from Alan Alexander Milne’s novel, and the text is also accompanied by well-known and lovely illustrations – so this book can be a great winter pageant or even a Christmas gift for both adult and child readers.

By selecting nostalgic volumes that recall the atmosphere of childhood, Libri tries to show that at Christmas, we should strive not for perfection, but rather for memorable, self-forgotten shared moments.
