I grew up with this book, and now I have my own copy of it, my children will also grow up with it. I have many fond memories of reading this book, and the Santa Cookie was made every year and continues to be made today!
Format:Paperback
The ultimate resource for answering kids' questions about Santa PLUS it's great entertainment for all ages...the illustrations are beyond compare! Have run through the dozen hardbacks originally bought...wish they'd reissue this treasure.

Absolutely the best Santa book ever published!
23 Dec 1998
Format:Paperback
Alden starts his book beautifully by telling, with superb imagination, the origin stories of the main characters in the book - Santa, Mrs Santa, the Elves, the creatures of the North Pole and of course the Reindeer. The author explains the mistique of Yuletide with the view of entertaining the child listener and adult reader. The questions that need answering are all handled in exquisite detail.
The illustrations are as entertaining as the wit, in the many stories that Alden must have concockted oops... researched, in his numerous trips to the North Pole and personal interviews with the "Big Fellow himself".
IT (Information technology)buffs will love the scientific explanations of; the flight of the reindeer, how a sleigh is loaded, what happens to non-believers, the Elvish language and their antics, coming down the chimney and most important, the marvels of Santa's toy workshop.
The book is devilishly clever and a must for any parent, teacher or child.

The Santa Claus Book

This is the best Santa Book ever! Good for all ages. We have made this part of our family tradition. Unique and fun information to keep children believing in Santa and full of the magic of Christmas,Santa, his elves, Mrs. Claus, etc. Makes Santa more real, yet more magic than ever. Great gift for children and new parents. This book should be published again in hard bound!

A Treasure for all ages!
8 Dec 2006
Format:Paperback
I received this book as a gift from Santa (my father) on Saint Nicholas Day in 1987. Saint Nicholas Day was observed on the German side of my family. It was a family tradition to leave your letter for Santa in your stocking. On the morning of the 6th (St. Nicholas Day) he had not only taken his letter, but left you a little something behind in your stocking. This book was just a little more proof that Santa did exist. My Father did his best to keep me a believer. The Santa Claus Book will make you smile at any age. The illustrations rock, and every page is filled with a cute, humorous account of everything Santa. You get the scoop on the Elves, reindeer and the history of Santa's suit. There is even an illustration of what happens to non believers. I am 28 and I still believe! You will love this book and so will your children.
