Customer Reviews

A new Christmas tradition at our house.

I bought this book last year 2006 for my then-6-year-old son. There is so much to read (and so much humor!) on every page - it's so entertaining. I love it because it presents the mystery of Santa in a fanciful, rather wacky way - we both get lots of laughs and it's crazy ideas always provoke a few questions along the way. This book has become a new Christmas tradition in our house and has been a party-gift for a few friends as well. Spread the cheer!

Our Christmas book choice for 2007

I bought this book for my 6-year-old son who has many questions about Santa. If he ever get a hold of the book I am sure he will enjoy it. The last two evenings my 10-year-old daughter and I have read this book together and we enjoyed everything about it. While it is a typical quick read for a picture book, we spent a long time study the illustrations which we thought were very funny. I found myself enjoying this book so much I forgot for a few minutes that it was fiction. Definitely worth buying and quite a cute book for a gift.

The inside scoop on Santa. . .

This is a fun-filled read. Parents, grandparents, older siblings, etc. will get quite a kick from reading and sharing this colorful and "informative" look into Santa's life!! The illustrations are fabulous. I had been searching for this years Holiday Book for each of my grandchildren and this one more than fills the bill. It is a delight. . .if a bit off the wall!!
