Barrett, Judi Santa from Cincinnati, PICTURE BOOK. Atheneum
Books for Young Readers, 2012. $16.99 Content: G.
Told by Santa himself, he explains his childhood and how he
became the most successful Christmas gift giver through specific holiday
details.
I am partial to Santa Claus stories and this one was
entertaining mainly because of the connections that are made with Christmas
objects and Santa characteristics that most of us are familiar with. The illustrations aren’t particularly
special, but they do help exaggerate the Santa Claus symbols and traditions in
the text. This is a fun Santa
Claus book, but it isn’t particularly striking.
