Silmaril The Father Christmas Letters

Has anyone here read Tolkien's Letters From Father Christmas?
I never have, but it seems very charming and I am hoping for some opinions.

From what I understand, it is all about Father Christmas' adventures at his home in the North Pole. According to what I've read online, he battles goblins, talks to polar bears, and deals with all sorts of mischief. I saw something about elves and gnomes too. It sounds quite interesting to me. I believe it was, like Roverandom, written for his children, so I expect the tone is quite light, as compared to some of his other works. Perhaps some of you can tell me more.
