Santa Kidby James Patterson Illustrated by Michael Garland
Hardcover: 48 pages
Bestselling novelist James Patterson, who has been entertaining millions of Americans for decades, brings his talent for storytelling to a young audience with a meaningful and humorous story of Christmas almost lost.
Award-winning illustrator Michael Garland's wonderfully bright illustrations capture the imagination of kids.
The story develops around young Chrissie, daughter of Santa and Mrs. Claus, telling the tale of how Christmas was almost lost due to corporate greed. Life at the North-Pole was good until Christmas was bought out by Exmas Express. Everything changed. The North-Pole became a heartless factory and nothing was right.
When Chrissie's Dad, Santa, becomes dispirited and can't make his usual rounds, Chrissie takes over and saves the day.
This charming story with a modern twist reminds us that Christmas isn't about greed and gifts, it's much more then that. As long as you "believe".
A great book to add to your holiday reading list. Kids will love that it's up to a young girl to save the day, "kids are small, but kids are smart and kids are the ones that know how to believe."
