It's traditional for British comics to have their own book for parents to give their children as a Christmas present. Naturally, The Beano was no exception. The Beano Annual, called The Beano Book from 1940-1942 and 1951 until 2002 and The Magic-Beano Book from 1943 to 1950, has been a staple in Christmas stockings for over 75 years.
