The 2022 Christmas collection brings some old favourites along with some new selections, from the traditional to the bizarre. Among the selections, there's a man who revels in having been born on Christmas, and a man who believes he'll die on Christmas; wild animals who set up their own Christmas tree, and a wild town that's tamed for one Christmas celebration; the faith of two small children's prayers, and faith in the existence of Santa Claus affirmed.

Ce onzième livre des fables de Jean de La Fontaine est celui qui contient le plus petit nombre de fables: 10.
